Listed in 50 Great Writers You should be Reading, the historical novel, The Swedish Gypsy is set in the early 1900's in Sweden. It's an engrossing portrayal of both Swedish and Gypsy cultures. Here's a review:
Mary Paulson has written an outstanding story that will enthrall any lover of history. I've read extensively about the European Gypsy, but knew little of those in Sweden. Her mention of the food made me hungry, her writing of the labor strife made me yearn for more information about the political climate of the times, and Fredrik's urgent migration to America made me wonder how many others arrived on America's shores for similar reasons. Linda Thompson, host of AuthorsWebTV.com recommends The Swedish Gypsy as a fascinating and educational book for all.
