Dinner & A Book - The Memoirs of Stockholm Sven
Episode #2302 - The Memoirs of Stockholm Sven
In 1916, Sven Ormson leaves a restless life in Stockholm to seek adventure in Svalbard, an Artic archipelago where darkness reigns four months of the year in the company of only a loyal dog on an uninhabited island. In The Memoires of Stockholm Sven by Nathaniel Ian Miller, Sven states he was never alone in the barren landscape of ice and snow. Gail Martin and guest Doug Farmwald try to determine who lives in such a stark place and how Sven and others survive while they prepare a meal comprised of Swedish comfort food.
