Summarið við Moniku
17-year-old Monika, who has already had lots of experience with boys, works at the vegetable warehouse, while the self-conscious Harry, who is a year older, works at the Forsberg concern. They meet for the first time at café Tólvan.
“She collapsed her shoulders, inched towards him, her hair tickling his nose. He was in a daze from the unfamiliar smell of girl …” Out on the Swedish coast, their love blossoms as they run around naked on the beach, but at some point, they will have to return to the city.
SUMMARIÐ VIÐ MONIKU (Summer with Monika) is the most tender and passionate love story written by renowned Swedish author Per Anders Fogelström. The no less celebrated filmmaker, Ingmar Bergman, has made a movie based on the novel, bearing the same title.
