Simon Stålenhag (b. 1984) is the internationally acclaimed author, concept designer and artist behind Tales from the Loop and Things from the Flood. His highly imaginative images and stories depicting illusive sci-fi phenomena in mundane, hyper-realistic Scandinavian and American landscapes have made Stålenhag one of the most sought-after visual storytellers in the world. Tales from the Loop was ranked one of the “10 Best Dystopias” by The Guardian, along with such works as Franz Kafka’s The Trial and Andrew Niccol’s Gattaca.

ABOUT: Summary of Tales From the Loop (2020, Simon & Schuster) Overview Tales From the Loop is Simon Stålenhag's first narrative artbook, blending evocative science?fiction storytelling with his signature retro?futuristic paintings. Set in an alternate 1980s Sweden, the book imagines a rural community shaped?quietly and profoundly?by a massive underground particle accelerator known as The Loop. Setting & Premise - In 1954, the Swedish government commissions the construction of the world's largest particle accelerator. - Completed in 1969, it lies beneath the pastoral islands of Mälaröarna, west of Stockholm. - Locals nickname the facility The Loop, and its presence subtly warps the environment, giving rise to strange phenomena, malfunctioning machines, and uncanny creatures. Content & Structure - The book is a hybrid of: - Narrative vignettes told from the perspective of children and families living near The Loop. - Full?page artwork depicting suburban 1980s landscapes infused with futuristic technology?hovering constructs, abandoned robots, enigmatic towers, and biomechanical anomalies. - The stories are loosely connected, forming a mosaic portrait of a community where the extraordinary coexists with the mundane. - Stålenhag's imagery draws heavily on Swedish suburbia, old cars, winter fields, and industrial remnants, creating a nostalgic yet uncanny atmosphere. Themes - Childhood vs. technology: Kids navigate a world where strange machines are simply part of the backdrop. N° de réf. du vendeur ABE-1772931553493
