Patrik Svensson's The Gospel of the Eels is a book about his relationship with his father, as well as a fascinating journey into the cultural, mythological and scientific life of eels. Both moving and hauntingly fascinating, on the one hand the story of the world's most enigmatic fish and its uncertain future and on the other a beautifully observed memoir of the experience of paternal bereavement and loss. For readers of 'H Is for Hawk' and 'The Soul of an Octopus'.

Patrik Svensson (b. 1972) is an arts and culture journalist at Sydsvenskan newspaper. He lives with his family in Malmö in southern Sweden. The Gospel of the Eels is his first book.

Agnes Broomé is a literary translator and Preceptor in Scandinavian at Harvard University. With a PhD in Translation Studies, her translations include August Prize winners The Expedition by Bea Uusma and The Gospel of Eels by Patrik Svensson.
