Written by…

I’ve been imagining, sketching, and writing stories, lyrics, and poetry since childhood. I’ve been actively writing and tracking my scribbles since the early 2010s. There are stories everywhere, floating within reach, almost ready to share. 

I have published three books, my first novel, Summer’s Breath, The Broadview, a novella, and a two-volume collection of short stories called Lover’s Compendium and A Life Fantastic.

Summer’s Breath

Summer's Breath. By Oskar Westin.

Summer’s Breath is an immersive experience that invites you to explore the labyrinth of the human psyche.


The Broadview

The Broadview. By Oskar Westin.

A campy thriller set in Toronto’s Riverdale neighbourhood. Amateur detective John McNapp is on the case when a friend ‘wakes up dead’ in The Broadview Hotel.


Lover's Compendium and A Life Fantastic. Short stories by Oskar Westin

Lover’s Compendium is a collection of stories that started as or were related to love from the start. From naïve expectations to seasoned reality, these short stories explore discovery, negotiation, loss, and exploitation, all in the name of love.

A Life Fantastic reflects reality against an unreal but plausible universe. A conversation about a drink at a bar can turn into an introspective tale about an unloved beverage, a mention of screeching insects, and questions why they are so noisy to begin with. A sorrowful minor scale can lift spirits when tuned to the right frequency.
