In the novels Johnson condemns nazi oppression and criticises the controversial Swedish neutrality policy during the war. During World War II he was editor of the magazine Håndslag and published Krilon, a trilogy of novels that in the form of an allegory deals with the events during the war. Increasingly upset by the rising totalitarianism in the 1930s, Johnson was strongly against fascism and nazism. Romanen om Olof became a classic in Swedish literature and was later filmed as Here Is Your Life. In the novels Johnson blended realism with fairy tales and typical modernist features such as inner monologue and changing point of view. Johnson's first major success as a writer was four autobiographical novels published between 19, published together as Romanen om Olof ("The Novel about Olof"), about a young man growing up in the northern parts of Sweden. Johnson's early novels were not widely read, but his 1929 novel Kommentar till ett stjärnfall ("Comment on a falling star"), an attack on capitalist society, was a critical success. Influenced by writers such as Marcel Proust, André Gide and James Joyce, Johnson gradually took distance from the traditional novel and became the most important representative of modernist literature in Sweden. The first De fyra främlingarna, a collection of short stories, was published in 1924. At this point he had published his first books. He travelled in Germany in the 1920s and lived in Saint-Leu-la-Foret, near Paris, France, between 19 with his wife Aase Christoffersen (1900–1938).
In Stockholm he became friends with other young proletarian writers and started the magazine Vår nutid. In 1919 he left his hometown and moved to Stockholm where he began to publish articles in anarchist magazines like Brand. Johnson left school at the age of thirteen and then held various jobs such as log driving and working at a saw mill and as a ticket-seller and projectionist in a cinema. The small house where he was born is preserved and marked with a commemorative plaque. Johnson was born Olof Edvin Verner Jonsson in Svartbjörnsbyn village in Överluleå parish, near the town of Boden in Norrbotten. For more guidance, see Wikipedia:Translation.
