The Swedish-Palestinian author Amer Sarsour published his much praised debut novel Medan vi brinner earlier this year. At the Gothenburg Book Fair, Edgar had a chance to interview Amer for a live show (in Swedish) about the book and about being Palestinian in Sweden.

This episode is in Swedish as the book hasn't yet been translated, apologies to everyone who doesn't speak the language! We plan on speaking to Amer in English soon.
