Uma Biografia de August Strindberg e o Baixo do Baixo no Porquinho Preto

Strindberg figura ao lado de Knut Hamsun entre os autores prediletos do SB. Segue uma resenha de uma biografia recente do grande escritor sueco de Sue Prideaux, Strindberg a Life: Not only was Strindberg the author of over 60 plays, 18 novels, poems, polemic and journalism, he was also a painter, photographer, naturalist, historian, linguist, alchemist and practitioner of the occult. Mining his nine autobiographies, voluminous correspondence and manuscripts (as well as numerous other historical sources), Prideaux has assembled a compelling portrait of a protean giant of European Modernism, who is now known to Anglophones only as the author of the plays Miss Julie and The Dance of Death.
