商品簡介
The new book from the witty, erudite, bestselling Swedish author of The Fly Trap.
Stories just begin. We rarely know where and almost never why. It doesn't matter. Nothing is certain any longer. I just want to shut my eyes, point at random and say, as a sort of experiment, that once, when I was sixteen years old, I spent a whole night singing romantic songs in the top of a pine tree. That's where it may have started.
In this follow-up to The Fly Trap, Sjöberg unearths the captivating story of Gunnar Widforss -- one of the best known Swedish painters in the USA and one of the least known in Sweden -- whilst contemplating the art of travel and our fascination with landscapes.
