He's talking about his latest collection of essays, most of which were written in the early 90's, called "the scar after the dream". It has all sorts of different essays, everything from German romanticism to French postmodernism. Also some other minor such as an essay on ballet and contemporary painting. Too bad you don't understand Swedish because he's the best speaker/conversationalist I've ever heard...
Yes, he is a very interesting person, I have seen several of his interviews with Nobel Prize laureates. Maybe I will learn Swedish one day, but on the other hand Horace does speak many languages and I can tell you his Russian (I am from Russia) is very good, which is not typical, you know.
He does look very tired all the time though, Horace, I want to try to catch him on email.
Träffade honom på ett besök med klassen på Svenska Akademien. Häftigt var en underdrift!

Jag gillar Horace Engdahl. Hans pregnans och skärpa är alltid lika charmerande.
