Obituary
STOCKHOLM (AP) - Henning Mankell, the hesitant figurehead of Scandinavian crime fiction whose books about the gloomy, soul-searching police inspector Kurt Wallander enticed readers around the world, has died.
Mankell's publisher Leopard said Monday on its website that the author and theater director died in the city of Goteborg, southwestern Sweden, during the night following his battle with cancer. His books sold more than 40 million copies worldwide.
In January 2014, Mankell revealed he had been diagnosed with the disease and wrote about his fight against it in the Guardian and a Swedish daily.
Survivors include his wife, Eva Bergman, the daughter of legendary Swedish film director Ingmar Bergman.

Discovered Henning Mankell's work 15 years ago and have greatly enjoyed all his work since then; a great loss all too early. Condolences to the Mankell family.

The loss of this thoughtful and humane man came as a shock to me. Mankell's death signifies to me something like the passing of an age of cultural doubt, an age of alienation and uncertainty which he so ably explored and dissected in his writings.
Mankell deployed a timely wrecking ball to comfortable illusions we shared about Sweden and its place in the world.
He will be sadly missed.
