The Nobel Museum

On the island of the Old Town is the Nobel Museum. There are six categories in which someone can
Doris Lessing
"The Golden Notebook"

Gunter Grass


Toni Morrison
"Song of Solomon"

be awarded the Nobel Prize. I don't know how they will keep adding to the display as it is an old building with a definitive amount of space. We found it quite confusing finding our way around at first, but it is very interesting. Even New Zealander Earnest Rutherford gets a mention!

I was particularly interested in the literature section, having read some of the authors. However, like many places in this part of the world, there didn't seem to be any airconditioning and far too many people to be comfortable. We didn't stay as long as we would have liked. Toilets are also a problem in Sweden. There never seem to be enough of them. Often they are gender neutral.
