There seems to be some confusion about your Swedish book, ABBA Människorna och musiken [The People And The Music] (1996). Can you tell us exactly how it differs from The Complete Recording Sessions?

Basically, I had realized, much to my own naïve amazement, that the format of the first book was too detailed and too complex for many readers, which I thought was a pity. I wanted to reach a wider audience, wanted people to read what I had found out: the stories and the anecdotes from the ABBA members themselves, all those interesting facts. So I jumbled the paragraphs around, removed the diary format and tried to make it a more straightforward read.

I also added a couple of pages about Kristina från Duvemåla, some biographical details, plus some other facts and observations. The chronology and discography (easy to understand even for a reader who does not know any Swedish) at the back of the book is hopefully an easy way to access certain important dates in ABBA's career. There are 18 b/w pictures in the book: some of the pictures are quite common, some rare, and one or two previously unpublished.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
