Wedding Worries (Swedish: Bröllopsbesvär) is a 1949 novel by the Swedish writer Stig Dagerman. It was Dagerman's final novel.[1]
Plot
The story is set in a remote Swedish village during the final preparations for a wedding between a young woman and an older butcher. Several locals are portrayed over a span of 24 hours.[1]
Reception
When Wedding Worries was published in English in 2018, Kirkus Reviews described it as "an awkward marriage between Bosch's Hell and Bruegel's Wedding Feast", portraying "a great deal of ribaldry" with humour "of the desperate, gasping variety".[1]
