Apart from celebrities – with dolphins. Klas Östergren, Sara Stridsberg and Kerstin Ekman … Three of the most neglected members of the Swedish Academy – novelists read and loved by a wide audience – have recently obtained permission from the congregation. With his new incarnation, by the unknown public Jila Mossaed, Mats Malm and Eric M Runesson (a poet, a literary writer and a lawyer who is hardly a lawyer), he now seems to want to invest in another type of academy. More anonymous and less glamorous. On the other hand, like the permanent secretary Anders Olsson, he has neither the charisma nor the popular appeal that distinguishes the representatives Sara Danius, Peter Englund and Horace Engdahl.
Or again, the new look of the Academy concerns more limited choices than a conscious strategy. Thank you for your chair is no longer obvious. The author Niklas Rådström confirmed Friday that the academy had asked but he did not want to participate in the current conditions. Some indicated that another person may have received the question and refused. The decision to elect Mats Malm was taken at Thursday's meeting.
