For those of you who like a well-written detective novel, I heartily recommend those by Henning Mankell, a Swedish author whose books have recently been translated into English--and very well done. The protaganist is Kurt Wallender, a Swedish homicide detective. So far I have read two and am now on my third. Kurt is human, with personal problems, as well as being a good detective, and some of the books take him away from Sweden--in one case to Latvia, and in this book, apparently, to South Africa. We have no Mankell books in the collection, but they would be good editions for people who like a good detective story--though sometimes brutal.
