Blurb
Montecore: The Silence of the Tiger is the second novel by Swedish writer Jonas Hassen Khemiri. It was published in 2006 and has received several important literary prizes. It was awarded 2006 year's P O Enquist Prize. Later the same year Montecore was nominated for the August literary award. Montecore also received Sveriges Radio's Romanpris award for best Swedish novel 2007. The listener jury’s motivation reads: "Because Jonas Hassen Khemiri leaves his mark on every single word in Montecore in an inspirational “transpiration” of creativity. Montecore is a beautiful, melancholic but also wonderfully funny book that depicts Sweden in a unique light, making it hard to think of anyone who shouldn’t read it."It was translated into English by Rachel Willson-Broyles.
