Over Yonder. The name lingers on the edge of my memory from the time I was a psychology student. At the time I was a jungian and believed in hidden symbols. I know my younger colleagues would disagree but I never really stopped believing in the hidden meaning and the collective being. Well, jungians apart, this is a wonderful book which deserves much prize. As a psychologist of the old school I like poems better than fiction, but it was a delight to see the fiction of KG Johansson here. There are others who deserves appreciation, for example Byron Oakes, Neil Ellman, John Yarmus. Much prize to this collection.
