Femicide - Goodreads Dimitris Passas (TapTheLine)’s review of Femicide - Goodreads

Femicide’ is a heart-pounding scandi-noir from the Swedish writer Pascal Engman, that scours the dark side of the internet in a thriller that feels all too real.No conocía al autor, pero tampoco a su obra y me ha gustado mucho, aunque no he leído los anteriores libros se pueden leer de manera independiente. Een jonge vrouw wordt dood aangetroffen in haar appartement. Ze is meer dan twintig keer in haar buik gestoken. Als rechercheur Vanessa Frank erachter komt dat de gewelddadige ex van het slachtoffer precies die week is vrijgelaten uit de gevangenis, lijkt het een uitgemaakte zaak. Toch heeft Frank het vermoeden dat er iets anders speelt. For me it is especially exciting that the British readers enjoy exploring Doggerland together with me. I’ve always been interested in what unites people in Scandinavia and the British Isles, how we are culturally linked, and what sets us apart. To me, Doggerland is - or at least might have been - the link between us. Or to quote Herman Melville: “It’s not down on any map; true places never are.” Tikrai geras skandinaviškas detektyvas be didelių skerdynių ir smurto scenų. Kūrinyje puikiai sugula politinis kontekstas ir feministinės mintys.

Pascal Engman's Femicide is a captivating thriller treading on topical subjects and providing the others with a blueprint regarding how an author can conjure up a titillating story which nonetheless corresponds to the emerging realities of our age and is meant to make the reader conscious of the newfound social ills. The author is relentless in his characterization letting the reader become privy to the inner workings of deranged minds who intend to do harm as a direct consequence of their misled views on the others and society as a whole. The violence is gratuitous at parts, but what is even more disconcerting is our exposition to the thought processes of the culprits. Vanessa is an intriguing protagonist carrying a heavy personal burden, her daughter had died while her foster daughter has moved permanently in Syria, and she makes for a decisive and prone-to-action character who moves forward the story with some brief interludes where she discloses to the people closest to her, her concerns and grievances. I really hope that publishers in the English-speaking parts of the world will wake up and translate the following Vanessa Frank installments, so far 5 books in total, as the Swedish author's pen opens new horizons in the genre's stagnant status quo. Vengono, inoltre, introdotte diverse figure maschili, che rappresentano i vari prototipi di uomini violenti o deviati e le loro “controparti” femminili. Abbiamo il conduttore ricco e potente, molestatore seriale, insieme alla moglie-balia, brillante donna in carriera sempre accondiscendente e premurosa; il bad boys, carcerato, con la sua bambolina/sacco da boxe, che viene minacciata di morte quando finalmente trova il coraggio di piantarlo; lo stalker folle, che come un’ombra malvagia segue l’ignara malcapitata, facendola oggetto delle sue perverse fantasie; poi avanti con il collega stronzo, che ruba le idee all’arguta collaboratrice, il capo maschilista e, per completare la carrellata, anche il branco di stupratori. A forma como os crimes foram sendo resolvidos também me agradaram e agarraram, de tal forma que me senti completamente viciada na história. I Råttkungen är det hat och våld mot kvinnor som står i fokus, vilket tyvärr alltid är aktuellt. Och den så kallade incel-rörelsen, En rörelse som betyder ofrivilligt celibat, heterosexuella män som lever utan partner, har haft lite eller ingen erfarenhet alls av sex och kärlek. FEMICIDE by Pascal Engman, translated from the Swedish by Michael Gallagher and published by Legend Press.As an author of crime fiction, I – of course – want to entertain people with a gripping story. But I hope that Femicide can serve another purpose, too, by helping to raise awareness of this growing threat to women everywhere.

All in all a fantastic read despite some translation and formatting issues. I'll definitely be thinking about this one for a hot minute.Cu toate că e un Thriller, apar câteva personaje față de care am simțit un oarecare atașament, personaje ca Celine, o mică rebelă pe care am adorat-o și mi-ar fi plăcut să aflu mai multe despre ea sau Niklas, băiatul bun cu un trecut întunecat. Protagonista, Vanessa, face parte din categoria polițistelor care pot rezolva un caz fără ajutorul altcuiva. Dacă era puțin mai violentă aș fi putut să jur că este Helen Grace, protagonista din seria lui Arlidge. Mi s-a părut un personaj destul de gol, prin comparație cu celelalte, dar poate că e de vină și meseria de polițist, în care doar datoria contează. În unele momente, asta o face să pară un roboțel pentru care și sexul devine un gest mecanic, fără sentiment. pagrindinė tema - inceliai. Nieko nebuvau apie juos girdėjusi, tad teko pasigooglinti, paieškoti video, nes buvo labai įdomu. Pasirodo, tai vyrai, kurie nesavanoriškai yra celibate ir dėl to kaltina moteris. Šiame celibate esantys asmenys paprastai siekia meilės, tačiau dėl lytinio patrauklumo stokos, socialinių įgūdžių nebuvimo, perdėto jautrumo ar kitų, pačių keisčiausių priežasčių, nesugeba jos pasiekti. Roughly 5% of these users come from Sweden, a country of 10.4 million. Why that is so, I can only speculate. But I would assume that it is a reaction to our early feminist progress.

Others, who hold management roles, tell stories of how they try to break women down in their workplace. They praise mass shootings and often share their fantasies of violence: dreams of raping, beating and torturing women. In 2021, Jake Davison, 22, shot dead five people in Plymouth – including his mother and a three-year-old girl. He then turned the gun on himself. Labiausiai pradėti norėčiau turbūt nuo to, kad O M G kiek čia daug veikėjų! Tik pradėjus skaityti man jie taip painiojosi, nes kiekvienas itin skirtingas, kiekvienas su atskira istorija. Tačiau įsibėgėjus prie to pripratau, veikėjus pradėjau lengviau atskirti ir supratau, kad kiekvieno iš jų istorija čia ne veltui. Neklydau. Autorius viską po truputį sujungė į vieną tinklą ir išnarpliojo visus mazgus, atsakydamas į visus kilusius klausimus. O jų čia buvo ne vienas ir ne du! Knyga persmelkta skandinavišku šaltumu ir tamsumu. Autorius puikiai sukūrė vieno "atstumtojo" paveikslą - tokio šlykštaus ir atgrasaus veikėjo, turbūt dar niekur nemačiau.⠀ Pascal Engman – Nyheter, artiklar, reportage och video – Nyheter24". nyheter24.se (in Swedish) .
