In the 1980s, the American Poetry Review magazine listed Trondstrom as "the most outstanding European poet" along with Czeslaw Mifors, broschi and Heaney, and even ranked Trondstrom in the first place-broschi admitted stealing his image, and he was a poet among poets.
Robert bly, an American poet, once compared Trondstrom's poem to "like a railway station, all trains from south to north stop in the same building for a short time. Maybe the underframe of a train is still covered with Russian snow, another Mediterranean flower is blooming in the carriage, and the ceiling of a carriage is covered with Ruhr coal ash. "
Nobel Prize in Literature awarded 20 1 1 on the grounds that "through its concentrated and transparent images, it has brought us a brand-new road to reality".
Peter Elende, Permanent Secretary of the Swedish Academy: "He wrote about major issues. His works discuss death, history, memory and nature. " The Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a eulogy on Twitter, saying: "This is a sad news. The Swedish poet Thomas Trondstrom has left us, but his poems will be immortal. "
