Two works of literature by the contemporary Swedish author Jonas Hassen Khemiri have been translated into English by Rachel Willson-Broyles, who graduated from Gustavus’s Department of Scandinavian Studies in 2002. Khemiri’s play “Invasion!” made its American premier at the Walkerspace Theater in New York City in February, and Khemiri’s novel Montecore was recently published by Knopf.
