Rewrite each paragraph in order to make it more concise
-Many authors use the geographical setting of a novel to highlight themes and important ideas. It is noteworthy that in many modern works of detective fiction the setting determines the overall mood and it determines as well the foreshadowing, and also the action to come. Where a novel takes place and the weather can have a great effect on how it makes those who read the book feel and what the readers expect will happen and what they take way from the story. Henning Mankel's books, set in Sweden, do many of these things to foreshadow and build suspense. In one of his books, which he entitled Firewall, many of the chapters begin with the brooding cold and east wind of the fall season and approaching winter of Sweden. The very open, bleak landscape, cold winds, snow and bitter cold of the termperatures sets the atmosphere, builds suspense and highlights the bleak cynicism of the lead chief detective Kurt Wallender and looks forward to the theme about the concern with the loss of traditional Swedish socialist values in the fabric of Swedish society: concern for fellow human beings, equal opportunity and status. It's like the death of the year and the cold of the approaching winter stand for the whole of the Swedish condition in the modern age as it rushes to embrace the very latest computer technology and moves into the new millenium.
