More details on reading suggestions

Sorry the note on PO Enquist was a bit improvised. He has published an enormous amounts of books and plays. See below for the ones I mentioned. Maybe start with the last one, Liknelseboken, actually. So nice. Not sure how many of them are translated to English. I also spoke about Rebecca Solnit. “A field guide to getting lost” - this is great (and super short). It is about most things in life – a seemingly random string of associations - but a lot of it is about the planet and our relationship with it. PO-books Kapten Nemos bibliotek (Captain Nemos library) On childhood and identity Legionärerna – om Baltutlämningen (The Legionaries) On war criminals and loyalty Livläkarens besök (The Visit of the Royal Physician) The fragile beginning of the enlightenment era Ett annat liv (A Different Life) On alcoholism Liknelseboken (The book of metahors) On love and life.
