Join us in a breath-taking journey through four centuries in the city by the sea!

Based on the experiences of eight children from Gothenburg, from Gretchen in 1621 to Glenn in 2021, we get to experience sorrow and joy, party and everyday life, drama, and chaos … and we will learn more about what formed the city over four hundred years.

A book to read by yourself or together, for everybody from five to a hundred and five whose hearts beat for Gothenburg.

Gustav II Adolf, Skansen Lejonet, Lasse i Gatan, Ostindiska kompaniet, Malmska valen, Evert Taube, Kopparmärra, Beda Hallberg, Poseidon, Liseberg, Volvo, Ingemar Johansson, Gothia Cup – everything passes by in this blissful mix of saga and reality.

Kersti Westin has lived her whole life in the world of books – as a bookseller, school librarian, book critic etc. She has also received the Gulliver Prize for her persistent work in broadcasting children’s literature and for her ability to inspire a love of reading in children and youth.
