Wenn du siehst wie die Karawane deiner Sorgen langgsam zu dir zuürckkehrt, erscheint sie in deiner Vorstellung umso weniger entfernt, je näher sie kommt. Eine Woche wird wird eine längere Zwitspanne als einMonat sein, ein Tag länger als eine Woche, eine Stunde länger als ein Tag. #thorbergurthordarson #thordarson #islandsadel

Sundown, beach, wine - and all I can do is thinking of Iceland. This book is so perfect, I can‘t cope. The wonderful writing of Thordarson totally got me. I started it three times and upon reading only the first pages I knew I had to take more time for this - TO SAVOUR EVERY SINGLE WORD. I finally made it - and I can‘t stop thinking about Iceland. #islandsadel #insearchofmybeloved #ThorbergurThordarson #icelandicliterature #icelandiclit #iceland

God, I can‘t even translate it into English. This quote is so perfect, I can‘t cope.
Have been off reading for quite a time and started with this book I wanted to read for long long time. It‘s full of quotable thoughts. Unfortunately I only got the German translation.

Ever since traveling Iceland for the first time I'm totally addicted. Can't stop listening to icelandic music and now got the first icelandic books. Got two books of fairytales and sagas and a novel from Thórdarson (I posted a picture of his awesome museum some while ago). Really looking forward to read them.

MariaW @Gissy Unfortunatly, I have no recommendations. It was hard to find any translation of icelandic literature in general. I think there are some English translations of the Thorbergur Thordarson, but I haven't checked that out yet. 8y

MariaW @Gissy Check out Laxness and Sjon, they have been translated into English. I loved The Blue Fox by Sjon. 💙 6y
