The Fog


Overview

Memory isn't a fairytale. It's cold water filling your lungs while everyone insists you're breathing just fine. In the idyllic suburbs of 1990s Sweden, the red-tiled roofs and orderly hedges hide a brutal truth. For six-year-old Pontus, safety is a myth, and home is a battlefield ruled by an invisible enemy: The Fog. It starts with a smell-sour, acrid, and sweet. It is the scent of parents who are physically present but spiritually absent, lost to a haze of alcohol and neglect. When the Fog rolls in, the rules of reality dissolve. A mother drives away and doesn't look back. A father celebrates tragedy with cake. And in the center of the chaos stands Pontus, gripping his little sister Lovisa's hand until his knuckles turn white. ""Your hand in mine, Lovisa. I won't let go. I'll never let go."" The Fog is a searing work of autofiction that peels back the layers of a fractured childhood. P.R. Spawnberg invites you into the dark cellar of memory, lighting a candle to reveal the hidden corners of a dysfunctional family. It is a story of survival in a world where adults are the monsters, and a stolen bicycle or a bag of newspapers are the only tickets to freedom. Raw, heartbreaking, and ultimately a testament to the resilience of the sibling bond, this is a story about navigating the mist to find your own way home. Perfect for fans of Shuggie Bain, The Glass Castle, and the gritty realism of Nordic literature.
