Vägmärken

por Dag Hammarskjöld

Resumen

Vägmärken is the only book of former UN secretary general, Dag Hammarskjöld, which was published in 1963. The journal was discovered after his death, with a covering letter to his literary executor, " a sort of White Book concerning my negotiations with myself - and with God." After the original Swedish version was published in 1963, the English translation came out in 1964, The translation was done by noted Swedish scholar Leif Sjoberg, and was refined by the poet W. H. Auden, who also wrote a foreword. This brought the book immediate literary notice, and even a front-page rave in The New York Times Book Review. It is highly regarded as a classic of contemporary spiritual literature.
