His deep love for the human race and the Earth shines through all the way. And the same does his heritage. Even though the themes in the poems most often are universal, and are written about and in Norway, the atmosphere is filled with the music, fragrances and sounds of the Middle East.
He might not live there anymore, has not done so for years, but the longing to be back in a world that does not longer exist, is present in every word he writes, in the rhytm of every poem.
