Beschreibung
First edition in English of this Icelandic author's satiric look at his homeland, inspired by the life of alienated poet Magnus Hjaltason Magnusson, the last of his "epic" novels, not well-received in Iceland because of its "harshly ironic portrayal of a backward Iceland during the rise of capitalism"; Laxness won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1955. Stout hardcover, full blue cloth, silver titling. Light wear to book, rear corners bumped (affecting the pages as well as the boards); jacket shows minor edgewear, faint creases, $7.95 price intact. Text clean; xvii, blank, 521 pages + list of other publications in the UW's Nordic Translation Series. A surcharge for international shipping of this oversize book may be required; please inquire for an accurate quote. Size: Large Octavo. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers v0643os
