Would you, he enquires, like to do a joint project? Without waiting for an answer, he pulls up seven small pieces of paper, and holds them up. They are ads, eight years old, and all with the same sender \u2013 who offers professional lessons in natural sciences, ballet, art, four musical instruments, and expert translations from six languages. Plus cleaning people\u2019s apartments. Signed Madeleine F.<\/p>\n<p>Now the students are told to portray this unknown woman in factional texts. Is she multitalented? Or simply a mythomaniac? For Hanna, the task becomes highly personal. She has to find out who this woman is.<\/p>\n<p><em>Madeleine F. <\/em>is a novel about searching. For a mystical, talented person, who seems to have vanished into thin air. For the solution to a riddle, which seems to be laid out to bewilder.

It is hard to put the book down. Just like with Maria Gripe, there is a mystery here that constantly drives the reading forward. Who really is this Agnes Cecilia, this Madeleine F? It is well written and extremely thrilling.<\/p>\n<p>John Sj\u00f6gren,\u00a0<em>Svenska Dagbladet<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Lena Einhorn masters the art of capturing the reader by placing that first piece of the puzzle so skillfully that you just have to read on to see how it goes&#8230; Madeleine F&#8217;s fate leaves Hanna no rest, and neither does it the reader: Who is she, or was she? Is she happy? Is she alive or dead? &#8230; Madeleine F is both an exciting and deeply serious story about a singular life and destiny.<\/p>\n<p>Mia Gerdin,\u00a0<em>Kulturnytt, Swedish Public Radio<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In some uncannily distinct key scenes, Lena Einhorn lays out the clues in this unusual mystery, which is a concrete story with secrets that can be discerned. But the story gets bigger than the individual and goes from being diffuse to becoming deeply interesting: it is about human frailty and about the sadness at all the possibilities in life that run between your fingers like water, that cannot be contained. That child who was once so bubbly, what happens to it when it grows up? How easily can a talent be crushed?<\/p>\n<p>Lotta Olsson,\u00a0<em>Dagens Nyheter\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8221;Madeleine F&#8221; is exciting as a psychological thriller&#8230; Einhorn skillfully and with great finesse exposes the dark mystery that rests over the main character\u2019s life. Family relationships and psychologically complex games are Einhorn&#8217;s specialty.<\/p>\n<p>Oline Stig,\u00a0<em>Sydsvenskan<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With a strong sense of rhythm and gaps, Einhorn alternates Hanna&#8217;s everyday life with the existence of a Russian-Hungarian girl in the same city, decades earlier. &#8230; Madeleine F. is an atmospheric and well-written story about the search for inspiration and identity. The parts communicate seamlessly, deepen each other and make the book hard to put down.<\/p>\n<p>Jonna Fries,\u00a0<em>Tidningen Vi<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For those who want to read the book, not too much should be revealed, it is really very captivating.<\/p>\n<p>Bj\u00f6rn Gunnarsson,\u00a0<em>Hallands nyheter, Hallandsposten<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8221;Madeleine F&#8221; is built like a puzzle, where the pieces are added one by one until the whole picture becomes visible.
