Traktorn
”De skulle alla visa att de från och med ett visst datum, ett visst år, till och med ett visst klockslag, skulle framgå som nya människor på den urgamla jorden.” Den stora kollektivromanen Traktorn, om jordbrukets industrialisering i andra världskrigets skugga, utkom första gången 1943. Ivar Lo-Johansson (1901–1990) är med sina prosaverk en av den svenska litteraturens främste samhällsförfattare, vars skildringar av den svenska statarklassen resulterade i statarsystemets avskaffande 1945. Han var en berättare av det stora formatet, på en gång social omgestaltare och konstnärlig gestaltare, skildrare av människor i livskamp.

Houston-based paleontologist Christopher Desturlow was called to New Orleans to identify an unusual animal caught in a Louisiana shrimper’s net. Through a serendipitous brush with a young deckhand from the shrimper’s boat, Desturlow learned that the events that brought him to southeast Louisiana, just in time for the onslaught of Hurricane Katrina, were part of an elaborate hoax. The source of the hoax was a powerful scientifi c organization that in practice, very much resembled a religious cult. Desturlow was the target of ...
