Those who Trespass Against Us (Dem oss skyldiga äro)

Cilla Naumann

A young family leaves Sweden to work with humanitarian aid and help in Latin America. Fifteen years later they return, affected and shaped by another continent. Who left and who are the ones coming back? In parallel plots, two women, not knowing about each other, do something irrevocable that will become decisive not only to themselves. What is kindness? And who is helping who?

 

In Cilla Naumann’s fifth novel a weave of questions is formed, where there are no easy answers or solutions. It is a rich and touching story which opens up for the reader’s own thoughts.
