Kent Lundholm talks about his newly written book Älskade Ester.
"In Lycksele she became known as Ester Duva. She was often judged for her appearance and her slowness. After following her in the years 1896-1985, I found a wise, humorous and a fighting woman. Through the novel she has been vindicated."
Kent Lundholm is a writer, born and raised in a small village outside Lycksele. He has lived in Umeå since 1984. Kent worked as a nurse (1982-1989), journalist, cultural editor, editor-in-chief (SVT, Folkbladet, Umeå Posten, Vasaplan), press secretary to the County Governor, press officer at the County Administrative Board, the Municipal Association and the County Council.
