Kjell Espmark (b.1930) was Professor of Comparative Literature at Stockholm University from 1978 to 1995 and has been a member of The Swedish Academy since 1981, serving as Chairman of The Nobel Committee from 1988 to 2004. He has published twenty volumes of poetry, ten novels, and over a dozen volumes of literary criticism. His many awards include The Bellman Prize, The Transtroemer Prize, Il Premio Capri and Il Premio Internazionale Camaiore. He is an officer of L'ordre de Merite. He has been translated into over twenty languages. Of the Spanish version of his latest book of poetry, Martin Lopez-Vega wrote in El Mundo: "The Creation confirms that we are faced with one of the most important poets of our time." Many of Espmark's poems are dramatic monologues in which the dead, some famous, some anonymous, speak to us, hoping for our attention. Another consistent feature of his poetry, and one which we can see extending over six decades, is the coherence we find within each volume, echoes and cross-references linking poems not only within a single collection but from book to book.

Kjell Espmark, born 1930, is a poet, novelist and literary critic, and has been a member of the Swedish Academy since 1981. He is published in some twenty languages and has been awarded several international prizes. He made his debut in 1956 with the collection of poems The Murder of Benjamin and in the late 1980s he made another notable debut, this time as a novelist. Gloemskan (1987) began a novel suite of seven volumes, called Gloemskans tid.As a literary scholar, Kjell Espmark is a specialist in modernism, with books about Artur Lundkvist, Harry Martinson and Tomas Transtroemer. Kjell Espmark is one of Sweden's foremost poets, and a number of his works are gathered deliberately into trilogies. A particular aspect of his work is the monologue, often from the mouths of historical figures, famous or otherwise.
