The animal farm

When the oppressed becomes the oppressors. Thoughtful story on how the road to hell can be paved with good intentions. You need to be careful when you throw out the garbage. Also interesting how this applies to the society of today, and not only to governments, but anyone risen up to a power position.

Nice stories from Småland to listen to while commuting. Geography, history, people and myths. A bit long and easy to lose focus sometimes. Extra fun to hear about places around where I grew up.
Released in 1939.

Granskogsfolk: Hur naturen blev svenskarnas religion - David Thurfjell
English: N/A
Super interesting book that is mixing history, religion and folklore. Explains the Swedish people's relation to the nature and the background behind it. It helped me put some words on my own urge to leave most of the modern necessities behind and relocate to a simpler living, alone in the forest with only trees and bird songs around me.
