Världen efter kommunismen

Written around the turn of the millennium, these poems try to get their bearings now that a great dream of human liberation has died, letting tentative words such as maybe and possibly carry the weight. Many also ask what poetry can do and why it matters, to the poet and to others, and in this wide, personal collection the hope for a different kind of society is closely bound up with his idea of the art itself.
