    <![CDATA[Håndteringen af udøde er en dybt original gyser-roman om, hvordan vi håndterer det umulige - som mennesker og som samfund. Det er en fortælling om vores største skræk og om en kærlighed, der formår at trodse døden. <br/><br/>Efter en langvarig hedebølge svæver et elektromagnetisk felt over Stockholm. Lamper og maskiner kan ikke slukkes, en kollektiv hovedpine indfinder sig, og kaos bryder løs. Pludselig er det forbi. Men noget er forandret.<br/><br/>Den pensionerede journalist Gustav Mahler bliver ringet op fra Danderyds sygehus med besked om, at de døde i hospitalets kapel er vågnet op. Hans eget barnebarn er for nylig blevet begravet. Vil det sige, at selv de, der ligger på kirkegården, er begyndt at røre på sig? Elvy har passet sin senile mand til hans død, og begravelsen skal finde sted to dage senere. Men midt om natten lyder der en kradsen mod døren. Da Davids hustru dør i en bilulykke, beder han til Gud om at få hende tilbage. Men hendes tilbagevenden til livet bliver slet ikke, som han håbede.]]>

    <![CDATA[Stockholm en dag i mitten av augusti. Det är onaturligt varmt fast det är sent på kvällen och överallt klagar människor på huvudvärk. Det känns som om ett elektriskt fält lagt sig över stan. Ett omvänt strömavbrott. Inga lampor kan släckas, inga maskiner stängas av. Paniken ligger i luften.<br/>Så plötsligt är allt över. Ingenting har hänt ...<br/><br/>Den pensionerade journalisten Gustav Mahler är trött på livet. Allt har gått fel och allra värst är att hans älskade barnbarn Elias nyligen dött i en olyckshändelse. Nu får Mahler plötsligt ett samtal från en gammal kontakt på Danderyds sjukhus som påstår att de döda vaknar. Det måste vara ett skämt. Ändå tar han sig dit för att undersöka saken.<br/>Han möts av en lika ofattbar som skrämmande syn. Läkare på sjukhuset bekräftar: massor av människor som avlidit under den senaste tiden tycks ha vaknat till liv. Mahler slås av en tanke. Elias. Men han är ju begravd. Mahler vet ändå att han måste åka till kyrkogården.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Once again a brilliant novel from Lindqvist.

    <![CDATA[Håndteringen af udøde er en dybt original gyser-roman om, hvordan vi håndterer det umulige - som mennesker og som samfund. Det er en fortælling om vores største skræk og om en kærlighed, der formår at trodse døden. <br/><br/>Efter en langvarig hedebølge svæver et elektromagnetisk felt over Stockholm. Lamper og maskiner kan ikke slukkes, en kollektiv hovedpine indfinder sig, og kaos bryder løs. Pludselig er det forbi. Men noget er forandret.<br/><br/>Den pensionerede journalist Gustav Mahler bliver ringet op fra Danderyds sygehus med besked om, at de døde i hospitalets kapel er vågnet op. Hans eget barnebarn er for nylig blevet begravet. Vil det sige, at selv de, der ligger på kirkegården, er begyndt at røre på sig? Elvy har passet sin senile mand til hans død, og begravelsen skal finde sted to dage senere. Men midt om natten lyder der en kradsen mod døren. Da Davids hustru dør i en bilulykke, beder han til Gud om at få hende tilbage. Men hendes tilbagevenden til livet bliver slet ikke, som han håbede.]]>

Ingenting har hänt ...<br/><br/>Den pensionerade journalisten Gustav Mahler är trött på livet. Allt har gått fel och allra värst är att hans älskade barnbarn Elias nyligen dött i en olyckshändelse. Nu får Mahler plötsligt ett samtal från en gammal kontakt på Danderyds sjukhus som påstår att de döda vaknar. Det måste vara ett skämt. Ändå tar han sig dit för att undersöka saken.<br/>Han möts av en lika ofattbar som skrämmande syn. Läkare på sjukhuset bekräftar: massor av människor som avlidit under den senaste tiden tycks ha vaknat till liv. Mahler slås av en tanke. Elias. Men han är ju begravd. Mahler vet ändå att han måste åka till kyrkogården.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[A very interesting concept, nicely worked out. a very slow book too, so don't expect a fast paced brain eating zombie novel. well-written, but the ending could have been better worked out, it feels like he had to finish it by a certain date and missed a last edit.<br/><br/>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[Stockholm en dag i mitten av augusti. Det är onaturligt varmt fast det är sent på kvällen och överallt klagar människor på huvudvärk. Det känns som om ett elektriskt fält lagt sig över stan. Ett omvänt strömavbrott. Inga lampor kan släckas, inga maskiner stängas av. Paniken ligger i luften.<br/>Så plötsligt är allt över. Ingenting har hänt ...<br/><br/>Den pensionerade journalisten Gustav Mahler är trött på livet. Allt har gått fel och allra värst är att hans älskade barnbarn Elias nyligen dött i en olyckshändelse. Nu får Mahler plötsligt ett samtal från en gammal kontakt på Danderyds sjukhus som påstår att de döda vaknar. Det måste vara ett skämt. Ändå tar han sig dit för att undersöka saken.<br/>Han möts av en lika ofattbar som skrämmande syn. Läkare på sjukhuset bekräftar: massor av människor som avlidit under den senaste tiden tycks ha vaknat till liv. Mahler slås av en tanke. Elias. Men han är ju begravd. Mahler vet ändå att han måste åka till kyrkogården.]]>
