A conversation with the Swedish author Birgitta Trotzig (1929-2011) , member of the Swedish Academy between 1993 and 2011.

The main themes of her books are guilt and liberation, often with a Christian vocabulary, and the balance between ethics and ethics.
"It was a day in May that you left, one day in May as we lost you. But when I now return to your grave, we are no longer lost."
