Before his breakthrough as a playwright in the early 1980s, one of the
most innovative and productive poets in Swedish letters. Debut book at
19: Syrener, snö ("Lilacs, snow", 1963). Norén was one of the first
authors in Sweden to describe and portray drug addicts and the
experience of tripping, or mental patients and prostitutes without
aiming at sensation or indignant reportage (the novels "The Beekeepers"
(1970) and "In the subterranean sky" (1972); those preoccupations turn
up again in his dramatic work.
