Per Olov Enquist’s first play, “The Night of the Tribades”, about Strindberg and his first wife Siri von Essen, became an international success. It is a play about a playwright rehearsing a play, “The Stronger”, inspired by his own life, and the layers of truth and fiction succeed each other.
“Det förefaller mig som om jag går i sömnen; som om liv och dikt blandats. Jag vet inte om [min pjäs] är en dikt, eller om mitt liv varit det.”
(”I have the feeling that I am sleepwalking, as if life and fiction have mixed. I do not know if my play, or if my life, was just a dream.”)
