Being Swedish, I am so very happy and proud that the Nobel Committee this year decided to give the Literature Award to our very own poet Tomas Tranströmer! I have been an admirer of his work for most of my life, and every year I have wondered - could this be Tranströmers year?
His international reputation is solid and well deserved, and I am very happy that now that he´s 80 years old, he is being given this ultimate recognition.
If you enjoy poetry but have not yet read Mr Tranströmer, do yourself a favor and check him out!
