«Welcome to America» is the psychological novel by Linda Boström Knausgård, published by World Editions in paperback (160 pages, in English).
Ellen, aged eleven, has stopped speaking: she believes her silence may have killed her father. Her brother has shut himself in his room, and her mother, a successful actress, pretends everything is normal. Each longs for family unity as darkness advances. A novel about trauma, childhood, and the love that can hold a family together or tear it apart.
Translated by Martin Aitken. Originally published in Swedish as «Välkommen till Amerika» in 2016. Nominated for the Augustpriset and the Svenska Dagbladets litteraturpris.
For readers of psychological fiction and Nordic narrative seeking a short, intense novel about childhood and family life.
