This is for you for the brochure, Mr. Bakhmann!. Valgren K.

A new bright and relevant work from an unsurpassed Swedish master of the word - Karl -Johann Valgren. The book, conceived and written by the author as a joke, having a deep philosophical subtext. The young Swedish writer, not recognized in his country, emigrates to Germany. Here he receives a letter from a literary official with a proposal to write a brochure about the literary climate of his Fatherland. The writer answers the letter. And soon justified and fair resentment against Swedish critics goes into unjustified and unjust hatred of the whole country. The hero begins to suspect that the whole world is a conspiracy against him. Here is the pamphlet - poisonous, ridiculous and sad, where even parody moments contain a lot of non -parody truth.
