Carina Rydberg

She caused a scandal in 1997 when she included unflattering descriptions of two famous Swedish men in her autobiographical novel Den högsta kasten (The Highest Caste).

After studying film, psychology and literature at Stockholm University, in 1987 she published her first novel Kallare än Kargil (Colder than Kargil) about a disillusioned woman's travels in India.

[1] Her autobiographical Den högsta kasten (The Highest Caste) published in 1997 caused a sensation with unflattering accounts of two famous Swedes she named in the book.

[2][3] Describing how it feels to be an outcast rejected by the men she desires, the novel goes far beyond what is normally expected of the author's role.

Similarly her Djävulsformeln (Devil's Formula, 2000) contains a vendetta against a number of famous men.
