Collected Poems

In 1990, the Swedish poet Transtromer was named the winner of the $25,000 Neustadt International Prize for Literature, sponsored by the University of Oklahoma. "Transtromer is the best-known Swedish poet in the English-speaking world, whose translated works are popular in U.S. universities", said Ivar Ivask, juror and (then) editor of World Literature Today. Transtromer "touches a chord beyond the academic circle, and he speaks to a wider readership than the specialists in Scandinavian or Swedish literature" Ivask said. This valuable collection contains all the poems he has written during the past 30 years.Transtromer, Tomas is the author of 'Collected Poems', published 1988 under ISBN 9781852240233 and ISBN 1852240237.
