Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Sad and funny, this is a wonderful book. I didn't want it to end' WOMAN'S WEEKLY 'An enthralling saga, set in Sweden, about the lives of two boys before, during and after the war ... impossible to put down' THE TIMES As a child, Simon was always aware that there was something different about him, something that caused late-night quarrels and sometimes tears. With the rise of Hitler in Germany and the coming of war to Sweden's neighbours, the tensions increase. Befriending a young Jewish boy, Isak, who is quickly taken under his mother's wing, enriches Simon's life, but makes it more difficult too - for Isak seems to fit in much better at home than Simon does. With the war's end comes the day when Simon must be told the truth. The truth about his affinity for the lake and its surrounding oak trees; for the strange dreams of an old man beneath the ways - and the truth about his past.

Download or read book Collective Identity and Integration Policy in Denmark and Sweden written by Marilena Geugjes and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-16 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the interrelationship between practices of collective self-interpretation, in this case national identity construction, and integration policies, using the example of Denmark and Sweden. Though both countries are considered to be socially progressive and modern, not least by themselves, the author makes the novel and provocative argument that both Denmark and Sweden are caught in a (discourse) paradox when it comes to integration policy, which stands in the way of successful immigrant integration. The author uses an innovative approach to reconstruct the Danish and the Swedish national identity by using social studies schoolbooks and novels as research material, thereby adding an interdisciplinary dimension to the book. About the author Marilena Geugjes is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Applied Sciences in Wiesbaden, Germany. She earned her doctorate in Political Science at Heidelberg University. Her research focuses on migration and integration policy, local politics, and the role of the police.
