Description
As a poet and storyteller, Olof Lagercrantz approaches the works of Swedish scientist-turned-seer with the eyes of an artist, exploring the complex philosophy of one of Sweden’s most famous sons with curiosity and open wonder. Lagercrantz examines Swedenborg’s life, his experiences in heaven and hell, and writings about faith, the nature of the universe, and human relationships as works of literature, casting a new light on Swedenborg’s ideas that often differs from the usual theological interpretations.
