The Nobel Prize in Literature 2011 was awarded to Tomas Tranströmer "because, through his condensed, transluscent images, he gives us fresh access to reality".
See the video from the Tällberg Forum 2007 when Tomas Tranströmer and Lena Endre held the full house in the Church of Leksand captive with strains of truths onto which we struggle to hold.
Sweden’s greatest poet made his
return to a Tällberg musical event by performing 3 pieces for the left
hand on piano. He was joined by Sweden’s leading stage and screen
actress, Lena Endre, who brought her own delicious Swedish to the
phrasings. Lena read in Swedish at the concert in Leksand and in English
during the opening session of the 2007 Forum. In this Tällberg Moment,
Tomas plays the music of Frederico Mompou, III Para la mano izquierda,
and Lena reads Part IV from Schubertiana, by Tomas Tranströmer.
