He died on his summerhouse Singö in the Stockholm archipelago. There was a
heartattack and they say it was caused by his longtime-alcoholproblem. In the
fifties they didn´t speak loud about this but some books and essays recently
tells about this in a very clean and sympathetic way. I don´t know if these
books are translated into english but incase i can higly recommend a book from
Yrsa Stenius called something liked "Until the wing is broken".
