Bjerke, André
André Bjerke was a prominent figure on the Norwegian culture scene in the 1990s. He was an authority on Norwegian post-war literature and language, a translator, editor, critic and renowned chess player, but most of all he was the author of non-fiction, children’s books, crime fiction, essays and poetry, for which he is best known. His erudition earned him the epithet "Renaissance man".

Evert Bäckström
Gender: Male
Backstrom is a homophobic, sexist, chauvinist, corrupt, egocentric, complacent, drinking police inspector that looks down on most of his colleagues and fellow human beings. At the same time he is a (to say the least) unconventional and surprisingly good investigator. He appears in more or less prominent roles in a string of police novels by Leif G.W. Persson.
