Genberg is nominated for his short story collection "Klen tröst", which was published in Sweden in 2018. But after the international success of the author's novel "Detaljerna", Klen tröst has only now been published in English.
Ia Genberg was nominated for the International Booker Prize two years ago for "The Details."
