Synopsis:
“Dag Hammarskjöld was a remarkable man whose eight years as Secretary-General of the United Nations were an extraordinary display of what a single person of genius can do in the wild and treacherous world of international relations. Hammarskjöld lived intensely, and alone. The friends of his private hours were, first and foremost, the arts. Among many other gifts, he was a poet, with a particular fondness for the haiku form, and a world-class photographer.“Kaj Falkman has combined these two sides of Hammarskjöld’s creative life in a book in which one gift enhances and enlivens the other. As someone who worked with Hammarskjöld for eight intensive years, I find this combination very moving. It gets as near to a genuine portrait of an extraordinary human being as we are ever likely to have.”— Brian Urquhart
