Abstract

The purpose of the study is to determine how the theme of memory manifests itself in Gerlof Davidsson’s and Aron Fredh’s images in the detective novel “The Voices Beyond” by Johan Theorin. Scientific novelty of the work lies in the fact that the article considers the novel that has never been an object of study before. Gerlof is a central character of the author’s creative work on the whole. The character’s individual memory is combined with the people’s collective memory, whose carrier is also Gerlof. Historical memory is presented in the image of Aron Fredh, an emigrant to the USSR. The research findings have shown that by referring to these events in the detective story, the author draws attention of his fellow countrymen to the issue that has been hidden from the public eye for a long time.
