Love and Solitude: Selected Poems, 1916-1923

Edith Södergran (1892-1923), born in St. Petersburg to a Finnish-Swedish family, wrote her first poems in German, French and Russian. When she turned to her native Swedish she introduced modernist poetry to Scandinavia, to almost universal scorn from the critics. Today she is recognized as one of the greatest poets in Scandinavia literature.
