A flickering distance. Memories of Stefania Sigurðardóttir. Compiled by Vilhjálmur Hjálmarsson of Brekka.
Stefanía Sigurðardóttir, a housewife in Brekka in Mjóafjörður, was born in Hánefsstaðir in Seyðisfjörður on June 23, 1879. She grew up there and actually lived there until she was in her early thirties when she married Hjálmar Vilhjálmsson in Brekka. In her later years, she wrote several memoirs from her childhood and various other things. Among other things, she wrote hymns and other kinds of poetry. Some of her stories were published in print. And a peculiar conversation program – with brides – was broadcast on the children's radio program almost half a century ago. It probably never occurred to her that this would become a book. But it did. There is a bright light about these memories of my mother. And I can best believe that many people enjoy following her for a moment about the areas of "flashing distance" that she sheds light on in her stories. That is why they are now, together with a biography and numerous photographs, brought to the table of kind-hearted readers. Vilhjálmur Hjálmarsson. (Bókatíðindi 2005).
