Carl Olof "Olle" Hedberg (May 31, 1899, Norrköping, Sweden – September 20, 1974, Verveln, Östergötland, Sweden) was a Swedish author. Hedberg is best known as a probing satirist of the middle class and conventional world in general. His first novel, ''Rymmare och fasttagare'' (''Prisoner's base''), was published in 1930, and from then on would write a novel every year for the next several decades. His works of the 1940s entail a search for religious and moral values.〔(April 1, 1995). ''Merriam-Webster's Encyclopedia of Literature''. Merriam-Webster. ISBN 0-87779-042-6. Page 528.〕 ''Bekänna färg'' (''Show one’s hand''), published in 1947, is considered to be one of his most important novels from this period. His works do not aspire to a philosophical greatness. Rather he himself is more of a realist and a disenchanted moralist.〔Seymour-Smith, Martin (1973). ''Funk & Wagnalls Guide to Modern World Literature''. Funk & Wagnalls. ISBN 0-308-10079-4. Page 1025.〕 He was a member of the Swedish Academy from 1957. Hedberg committed suicide 1974, a few weeks after his daughter Birgitta succumbed to a sudden illness.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Olle Hedberg )〕 ==Selected bibliography== *''Prisoner's Base'' ((スウェーデン語:Rymmare och fasttagare), 1930) (English translation 1932) *''Iris och löjtnantshjärta'' (1934) *''Ut med blondinerna!''
