Description
This is the archive of a poetry reading and discussion on Göran Sonnevi, winner of the 2006 Nordic Council's Literature Prize, Swedish writer, one of the most important poets working today. In "Mozart's Third Brain," his thirteenth book of verse, he attempts "a commentary on everything" - politics, current events, mathematics, love, ethics, music, philosophy, nature.
