Imagine Bruegel’s “The Tower of Babel” as if it were a library with books stacked by Borges and you get what it feels like when you enter the Stockholm Public Library.
Designed by Gunnar Asplund, the circular structure around the rotunda of the reading room was finished in 1928.
Browsing titles three stories up is a vertiginous experience. You can’t help but leave this library on a high.
