| Selected Works |
Göran Sonnevi (b. 1939) is regarded as one of Sweden's great living poets; his increasingly meditative work can be seen as a single long poem that continues from book to book (14 to date). So far a small selection of his work translated by Robert Bly and a longer selection translated by me have appeared in book form. Currently I am nearing the three-quarters mark of Sonnevi's nearly 200-page poem "Mozart's Third Brain," which I hope to finish next year, and for which I hope to find an American publisher committed to "great" European poetry in translation.
