And she's trying to work through her PTSD with the help of her therapist, only she can't tell the truth about Jerry or what really happened the night he died. Just when Charlotte thinks she might be moving on, someone starts sending her threatening messages claiming to be Jerry, saying things only he would know. But it can't really be Jerry because there's no such thing as ghosts. The cold spots in her room must be a draft and the noises she hears must be the house creaking. There has to be a logical explanation for all of it. Because if ghosts are real, then Jerry came back for her-just like he always said he would"--

Jonas Sjöströms nye roman, der er den fjerde i rækken, men som kan læses selvstændigt, er en rystende historie om et psykisk overgreb, der fandt sted i 8-årige Jons barndom. Jon, som er romanens fortæller, oplever på nærmeste hold, da alvorlig psykisk sygdom i familien pludselig vender op og ned på hele hans liv. Det kommer ganske uventet – et nært familiemedlem, Anders, går amok og raserer sine forældres hus. Jon er til stede, da et tungt askebæger bliver kastet med voldsom kraft gennem stuen og smadres. Kort efter slæber Anders alle sine ejendele ud på gårdspladsen og sætter ild til det hele. Anders har både raseret huset – og Jons barndom. Chokket sætter sig varige spor i Jon og kommer til at præge både hans ungdom og voksenliv. Det har både fordele og ulemper. Jon bliver lidt mere rå i sin tilgang til de mennesker, som er en del af hans hverdag, mindre empatisk, men samtidig bliver han også meget bedre til at passe på sig selv og dem, som han holder af.Uddrag af bogen Jon sad i haven, og ventede på farmor. Mor kom og gav ham et kram. Hun var så underligt ”sød” i dag – mor … Gad vide om det hang sammen med det mundhuggeri Jon havde været vidne til nogle nætter forinden? Mor havde nogle dage, ikke sagt andet end ”JA og NEJ,” til far. Det fik Jon til at tænke på, da far og mor var uvenner i Sverige – hos en af fars andre brødre, der havde et sommerhus dér. Jon blev ked af, at de var uvenner. Han forstod ikke hvorfor. Når man er 8 år – enebarn og hedder Jon, kan man ikke altid selv se, hvorfor man er ked af det. Og man forstår heller ikke altid, hvad de voksne tænker. Eller sig selv og hvad man måske er bange for. Om forfatteren Jonas Sjöström (f. 1976) er en dansk forfatter, der med sin debut, Livets pris, markerede sig stærkt i feltet af debutanter. Jonas behersker adskillige litterære genrer. Denne fjerde roman, Pludselig gik der ild i min barndom, er delvis selvbiografisk. Romanen er i høj grad præget af en stærk indlevelse, en uhyggelig indsigt i egen underbevidsthed og især hans evne til at lege med ord og sætninger. Romanen er et ætsende og kritisk portræt af familien, når den svigter. Romanens væsentlige budskab er, at uanset hvor sort det ser ud, må man aldrig give op, og at man ikke kan passe på andre, før man har passet på sig selv.

To make matters worse, he is bullied relentlessly by Devonte, a boy in his fourth grade class who is much bigger. Thankfully, his teacher finds a way to end the bullying once and for all. The role-playing exercise she creates transforms the classroom into a world of make-believe, where the bullies are sheep and kids like Oliver are wolves. Lessons are learned when the tables are turned, and Oliver becomes the biggest, baddest wolf of them all. About The Author: Ben Clement is retired and lives in Gary, Indiana.
