A Walk Around Sandhamn
For Listening
A walk around Sandön, commonly known as Sandhamn - the island of civil servants, summer guests, artists, sailors, partygoers. 'In short - Sandhamn - is a strange little place where the din of the outside world only comes once a week in the summer and rarely or never in the winter; the sea with its extraordinary sights; lighthouses, the destination of unforgettable excursions; the pier with its impressive arm and gymnastics; the harbour with its sailboats and night-time encounters aboard; the customs office with its revolving doors and the telegraph office with its beautiful game board. oh, if I were to take all the ink used by nose-twisting letter writers and failed poets and rave about all of Sandhamn, my description would still. Therefore I stop here.'
