MARIT DANIELSSON (1962) was born in the small village of Idbäck outside of Malung, and now resides in Stockholm. She has worked in television as a channel manager and held the position of chief editor for many years in the world of magazines.

Reviews

“[Greymire] is a thought-provoking and captivating slow burner of a relationship drama […]. Depictions of the scenery’s beauty and joyful fiddler’s music stand in stark contrast to an inner chaos.”
– BTJ, 4/5 stars (SE)

“Marit has written this year’s [2024] best book to gift for Christmas.”
– Dala-Demokraten (SE)

“Very beautiful! […] It is perfect that Greymire is part of a series and that I have more exciting reading sessions to look forward to! I will happily return to the idyllic landscape where meadows, sheds, woods and lakes stand in stark contrast to the dramatic, destructive and realistically portrayed family relationships.”
