Brotasaga. A novel by Björn Th. Björnsson.
Since the summer that has just begun, there is little light in Anna Guðrún's story. It is certain, however, that she began to study sewing and work. It consisted mainly of sewing Icelandic costumes, although not on a kilt or a kilt, but machine sewing on tunics and mantles, which were then very popular. From oral sources, although vague, it is best to assume that she was under the guidance of the well-known seamstress Emerensína Þorkelsdóttir at Bankastræti 14. From the same source, Anna soon became very skilled and efficient in this work and soon had enough income from it to support herself and a good room up from Grjótaþorp. She was now independent for the first time and had her own way of doing things and goings-on. It became even more difficult for Halldór Runólfsson when he began to carry the burdens on her, having himself become a foreman and James White's chief supplier, especially when buying fish up on the Skagi and south by sea, having now acquired a new trinket on his wrist.
