description: 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.
