内容简介
1963年他的日记式作品《路标》（V?gm?rken） 出版，他在书中记录了自1925年至去世时每天的自省。
著名诗人W.H.Auden参与翻译此书英文版并作导论推介。
张爱玲文学遗产执行人宋以朗博士将此书列为他一生最爱的十本书之一。他认为政治家大多说谎成习惯，哈马舍尔德是极少数的例外。
亚马逊书店一位读者评论认为，作者一生挣扎于积极行动与沉思默想两种生活之间，力求平衡，这是政治界知识人都永远会面临的一对矛盾。
His only book, V?gm?rken (Markings), was published in 1963. A collection of his diary reflections, the book starts in 1925, when he was 20 years old, and ends at his death in 1961.
Markings was described by a theologist, the late Henry P. Van Dusen, as "the noblest self-disclosure of spiritual struggle and triumph, perhaps the greatest testament of personal faith written ... in the heat of professional life and amidst the most exacting responsibilities for world peace and order."
Hammarskj?ld writes, for example, "We are not permitted to choose the frame of our destiny. But what we put into it is ours. He who wills adventure will experience it—according to the measure of his courage. He who wills sacrifice will be sacrificed—according to the measure of his purity of heart."
Markings is characterised by Hammarskj?ld's intermingling of prose and haiku poetry in a manner exemplified by the 17th-century Japanese poet Basho in his Narrow Roads to the Deep North. In his foreword to Markings, the English poet W. H. Auden quotes Hammarskj?ld as stating "In our age, the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action."
