Debuten skedde med Italienaren 2003, en delvis självbiografisk roman som från början skrevs för att bearbeta känslorna efter faderns sjukdom och död. Angående det självbiografiska innehållet sade dock Sven Olov Karlsson att "Jag öste på med sanningar och lögner och våldsamma överdrifter och rent hittepå, långt bortom vad som kan kallas självbiografiskt."

That I actually do write stories and novels and essays, and that they get published, still astonishes me.
