Iceland – the island of fairytales and sagas. Within 16 short stories the author revives Iceland’s magical landscapes: lonely villages, fiords framed by snowy mountains and lava fields cover with moss. Based on this touching stories about the Icelandic everyday life develop – snapshots that give insight in the feelings and thoughts of the people there and that are a matter of reflection. The stories often are somewhat melancholic. They deal with love, the escapes from everyday life, family and homesickness and also with the encounters of Germans and Icelanders or those that consider themselves a little bit of both.
