Biblioteket på godståget

Vad hände egentligen på boktågets första resa – och varför vill ingen prata om det? Amerika, 1936. Millie Lang blir ivägskickad till Montanas vildmark för att arbeta med ett bokprojekt som ska sysselsätta traktens arbetslösa författare. Väl på plats möts hon av misstänksamhet och rykten. För att förstå lokalinvånarna bättre börjar hon gräva i det förflutna, och finner sig snart indragen i ett mysterium kring ett gammalt tågvagnsbibliotek – och dess gåtfulla bibliotekarie Alice Monroe. Tio år tidigare tog Alice med den unga, viljestarka gruvarbetardottern Colette Durand på boktågets första resa. Bara Alice kom tillbaka. Vad hände egentligen på spåret? Och med Colette? Och varför tiger alla om händelsen? I jakten på sanningen nystas en historia upp om tre kvinnor sammanflätade av hemligheter och deras kamp för rättvisa i ett kärvt och obarmhärtigt landskap. Biblioteket på godståget är en fängslande, storslagen roman om kvinnlig styrka, vänskap och litteraturens förmåga att förändra liv, inspirerad av verkliga händelser. Brianna Labuskes, född i Harrisburg i Pennsylvania, är en amerikansk journalist och författare. På svenska finns sedan tidigare hennes romaner De förbjudna böckernas bibliotekarie (2024) och Den försvunna boken (2025).

Kan en enkel bibliotekarie ha modet att skapa hopp i ett land i ruiner?

Emmy Clarke är bibliotekarie, inte soldat. Det stoppar dock inte Kongressbiblioteket i Washington från att skicka henne till Tyskland år 1946. Hennes uppdrag är att hjälpa till att ta tillbaka värdefull litteratur som plundrats av nazisterna och se till att den återbördas till de rättmätiga ägarna.

Redan första dagen hittar Emmy en poesisamling av Rainer Maria Rilke, dedikerad till ”Annelise, min modiga edelweisspirat”. Hon kan inte släppa dedikationen och blir nyfiken på historien bakom den. Sökandet efter bokens ägare leder Emmy till två systrar, ett brutalt svek och till spåren efter de modiga kvinnor som vågade protestera mot deportationen av judarna under Rosenstrasseprotesterna.

Den försvunna boken är en storslagen berättelse om kärlek, förlåtelse, mod och motstånd, och lyfter litteraturens kraft och betydelse i mörka tider.

Brianna Labuskes, född i Harrisburg i Pennsylvania, är en amerikansk journalist och författare. Den hyllade De förbjudna böckernas bibliotekarie gavs ut på svenska 2024.

”Brianna Labuskes berättar i flera tidsplan om tre kvinnor, om mod och rädsla, om hur svårt det är att veta vem som talar sanning och vad som är rätt att göra. (…) Parallellerna till dagens förbjudna böcker är självklara, och tyvärr även till den politiska utvecklingen.” Lotta Olsson, DN om De förbjudna böckernas bibliotekarie

Kärleken till böcker kan övervinna allt

Berlin 1933. Efter framgångarna med sin debutroman får den amerikanska författaren Althea James en inbjudan från självaste Joseph Goebbels att delta i ett kulturutbytesprogram i Tyskland. För Althea är Berlin gnistrande och spännande, en möjligheternas stad. Men den föreställningen förändras snabbt när hon möter Dev, en kvinna som visar henne det riktiga Berlin.

Paris 1936. Hanna Brecht har flytt Tyskland och förföljelsen efter att ha förlorat allt hon hållit kärt. Paris är inte den fristad hon tänkt sig, men på De förbjudna böckernas bibliotek fylls hennes liv sakteliga med ny mening.

New York 1944. Sedan Vivian Childs man dödades i striderna mot nazisterna har hon fört ett eget krig mot den politiker som beslutat att avbryta hennes hjärteprojekt: att tillhandahålla väl utvalda böcker till miljontals soldater utomlands. Hon måste få senatorn att dra tillbaka beslutet - och till hjälp tar hon en alldeles särskild bibliotekarie.

"Missa inte den här skrämmande aktuella romanen om nazistiska bokbål och förbjudna böcker." Lotta Olsson, Dagens Nyheter

"Labuskes lyfter inte bara frågan om censur, förtryck och avhumanisering utan påminner också om att historien upprepar sig. Samtidigt planterar hon små frön av hopp genom sina karaktärers vägran att låta berättelserna som ska föra oss samman tystas." Booklist

"Gedigen research gör boken trovärdig och håller läsaren fängslad till sista sidan." Library Journal

"En medryckande och sakkunnigt berättad historia, som påminner oss om farorna med censur, om böckernas kraft och den plikt vi alla har att stå upp för de friheter vi värdesätter." Kristin Harmel, författare till De bortglömda namnens bok

Brianna Labuskes är i grunden journalist med inriktning mot politik. De förbjudna böckernas bibliotekarie är hennes första historiska roman.

For fans of The Rose Code and The Paris Library, The Librarian of Burned Books is a captivating WWII-era novel about the intertwined fates of three women who believe in the power of books to triumph over the very darkest moments of war. Berlin 1933. Following the success of her debut novel, American writer Althea James receives an invitation from Joseph Goebbels himself to participate in a culture exchange program in Germany. For a girl from a small town in Maine, 1933 Berlin seems to be sparklingly cosmopolitan, blossoming in the midst of a great change with the charismatic new chancellor at the helm. Then Althea meets a beautiful woman who promises to show her the real Berlin, and soon she’s drawn into a secret group of resisters who make her question everything she knows about her hosts—and herself.Paris 1936. She may have escaped Berlin for Paris, but Hannah Brecht discovers the City of Light is no refuge from the anti-Semitism and Nazi sympathizers she thought she left behind. Heartbroken and tormented by the role she played in the betrayal that destroyed her family, Hannah throws herself into her work at the German Library of Burned Books. Through the quiet power of books, she believes she can help counter the tide of fascism she sees rising across Europe and atone for her mistakes. But when a dear friend in the WWII resistance decides actions will speak louder than words, Hannah must decide what stories she is willing to live—or die—for.New York 1944. Since her husband Edward was killed fighting the Nazis, Vivian Childs has been waging her own war: preventing a powerful senator’s attempts to censor the Armed Service Editions, portable paperbacks that are shipped by the millions to soldiers overseas. In her battle against censorship, Viv knows just how much they mean to the men through the letters she receives—including the last one she got from Edward. She also knows the only way to win this fight is to counter the senator’s propaganda with a story of her own—at the heart of which lies the reclusive and mysterious woman tending the American Library of Nazi-Banned Books in Brooklyn.As these multiple timelines converge and Viv unknowingly brings her fight crashing into the secrets of the recent past, the fates of these three women will change all of them forever.Inspired by the true story of the Council of Books in Wartime—the WWII organization founded by booksellers, publishers, librarians, and authors to use books as “weapons in the war of ideas”—The Librarian of Burned Books is an unforgettable work of historical fiction, a haunting love story, and a testament to the beauty, power, and goodness of the written word.

Inspired by true events, a thrilling Depression-era historical fiction mystery from the author of The Librarian of Burned Books about a woman’s quest to uncover a mystery surrounding a local librarian and the Boxcar Library—a converted mining train that brought books to isolated rural towns in Montana.When Works Progress Administration (WPA) editor Millie Lang finds herself on the wrong end of a potential political scandal, she’s shipped off to Montana to work on the state’s American Guide Series—travel books intended to put the nation’s destitute writers to work. Millie arrives to an eclectic staff claiming their missed deadlines are due to sabotage, possibly from the state’s powerful Copper Kings who don’t want their long and bloody history with union organizers aired for the rest of the country to read. But Millie begins to suspect that the answer might instead lie with the town’s mysterious librarian, Alice Monroe. In a dual timeline that reaches back more than a decade earlier, Alice Monroe created the Boxcar Library in order to deliver books to isolated mining towns where men longed for entertainment and connection. Alice thought she found the perfect librarian to staff the train car in Colette Durand, a miner’s daughter with a shotgun and too many secrets behind her eyes. Now, no one in Missoula will tell Millie why both Alice and Colette went out on the inaugural journey of the Boxcar Library, but only Alice returned. The three women’s stories dramatically converge in the search to uncover what someone is so desperately trying to hide: what happened to Colette Durand.Inspired by the fascinating, true history of Missoula’s Boxcar Library, this novel for book lovers blends the story of the strong, courageous women who survived and thrived in the rough and rowdy West with that of the power of standing together to fight for workers’ lives. And through it all shines the capacity of books to provide connection and light to those who need it most.
