The Mother in the Work and Life of Peter Weiss

Although the main focus of this study is on the mother figure, it offers an exhaustive examination of Peter Weiss's oeuvre, including his less known early Swedish works.

It is unique in that the author, who is a native of Sweden, bases her analysis on firsthand information which she obtained from personal interviews conducted in Sweden with Weiss's sister, his widow, his first wife, and his daughter.
