This was followed by the short story collection ''Tvåsamhet'' (‘Twosomeness’, 2005). Holmström's first novel was published in September 2007: ''Ur din längtan'' ('Out of your Longing'). In 2009 she won the Svenska Dagbladet Literature Prize for her third short-story collection ''Camera Obscura'', a connected series of stories focused on young eco-terrorists in Helsinki.
