Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Iceland is a land of stories; from the epic sagas of its mythic past, to its claim today of being home to more writers, more published books and more avid readers, per head, than anywhere in the world. As its capital (and indeed only city), Reykjavik has long been an inspiration for these stories. But, as this collection demonstrates, this fishing-village-turned-metropolis at the farthest fringe of Europe has been both revered and reviled by Icelanders over the years. The tension between the city and the surrounding countryside, its rural past and urban present, weaves its way through The Book of Reykjavik, forming an outline of a fragmented city marked by both contradiction and creativity.Includes a foreword written by award-winning Icelandic author Sjon.Translated from the Icelandic by Victoria Cribb, Philip Roughton, Lytton Smith, Meg Matich and Larissa Kyzer.Published with the support of the Icelandic Literature Center. Bringing together fiction from celebrated writers, The Book of Reykjavik is an anthology of short stories charting the social and and cultural change of Reykjavik over the last fifty years, creating a literary map of the city. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781910974032
