Uneven; heavy on astrological/alchemical signs. Interesting visual organization, using shape/structure - useful if you are trying to find a symbol you don't know the name for.
I discovered this book while doing the research for a uni paper (which used one of Liungman's translations as a source for examples). It does what it says on the tin and serves as a practical handbook for literary translators on the basis of Liungman's own experiences.
