Bjarni Thorsteinsson. Fireflies at the farthest sea. By Vidar Hreinsson.
A remarkable and well-written biography of a man who rose from abject poverty to education. He took up the priesthood in a small village that soon became the herring town of Siglufjörður, saving Iceland's folk heritage from oblivion and decay. He was a great entrepreneur and romantic – a complex man who taught in the storms of his time.
