The Revolution of Everyday Life | Bruno K. ijer
Poetry. Music. Translated by Victoria Hggblom and Bruno K. ijer. Bruno K. ijer, bestselling author and fierce social critic, has reached an iconic status in Sweden. He broke through as a rebellious young poet in the early 1970s with a brash style that drew equally from rock music and the historical avant-garde. In the 1980s, ijer became a performing artist, touring Sweden with a band and releasing a record. But in the 90s he startled Swedish literature returning to written poetry with the legendary trilogy of books--While the Poison Acts, The Lost Word and The Fog of Everything--that together make up a powerful, mystical vision. The books became instant classics of modern Swedish poetry and have been translated into many languages. This is the first time all three books are published together in English translation.
