Publisher's Synopsis
This two-way celebration of literary and cultural relations explores the mutual perceptions and inspiration arising between British, Irish, American and Swedish authors. With prose and poetry by Nobel Literature Prize winners Seamus Heaney and W.B. Yeats, accounts of visits to Sweden by T.S. Eliot and G.B. Shaw, and writing by Graham Green and Eveyln Waugh that was inspired by Swedish authors, this compelling anthology unearths a surpising depth of interest in Sweden throughout the literary world. Also features new work by Swedish authors such as Johanna Ekstrom.
