Freda's Voice

It was a time of fun and reflection. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and I wish you the best for this new year! I made my reading goal of 50 books too! It's a good feeling to meet a personal goal. Did you have any personal goals that you met? Will you have any for next year?  Oddly enough, my favorite book of the year is one I have read many times. Some books will always be great reads, and my pick is one of them. 2019 will be a year of knowing my own worth and evaluating relationships. You have to ask yourself what is most important, and categorize your priorities accordingly. Over 40, you start to really think of these things more.

Martin Österdahl has studied Russian, East European studies, and economics. He worked with TV productions for twenty years and was simultaneously the program director at Swedish Television. His interest in Russia and its culture arose in the early 1980's. After studying Russian at university and having had the opportunity to go behind the Iron Curtain more than once, he decided to relocate and finish his master’s thesis there. The 1990's were a very exciting time in Russia, and 1996, with its presidential election, was a particularly crucial year. Seeing history in the making inspired Österdahl to write the first novel in the Max Anger series, Ask No Mercy . The series has been sold to more than ten territories and is soon to be a major TV series.
