Carola Häggkvist releases autobiography on 60th birthday
Swedish singer Carola Häggkvist is celebrating her 60th birthday with the release of the first part of her autobiography, 'Jag är Carola', co-authored with Desirée Stattin Drakenberg.
The book, which spans over 500 pages, provides a detailed account of her life and career, including her experiences with the music industry, her faith, and her relationships with figures such as Bert Karlsson and Runar Søgaard. During a television appearance on TV4's Nyhetsmorgon, Häggkvist discussed the emotional process of writing the book and the difficulties she faced early in her career.
Critical reception of the autobiography has been mixed. While some highlight the intense detail and personal depth, reviewers from Smålandsposten and Borås Tidning suggested the work could have benefited from tighter editing due to its length.
