Lifetime Achievement Award
We are proud to announce that Anna Jansson has been awarded the Bonnier’s Book Club’s Lifetime Achievement Award, “Bokhyllan, 2025. Anna received the award at a ceremony at Gothenburg Book Fair.
Jury motivation:
“This year marks 25 years as an author for Anna Jansson, whose debut novel The Speechless God (2000) introduced readers to the very first Maria Wern crime story. Ever since, her books have remained firm favourites among members of Bonniers Book Club and The Book of the Month Club — every single year!
With a sharp instinct for topical issues, a rare ability to create momentum and suspense, and a deep psychological understanding of human relationships, Anna Jansson has proven herself a versatile storyteller across genres — from two crime series and a feelgood series to two children’s mystery series. For a quarter of a century, she has written her way straight into the readers’ hearts.”
A huge congratulation Anna and well deserved!
