The heathen. A book of poems by Sveinbjörn Beinteinsson, the general god.
The author of this book of poems is Sveinbjörn Beinteinsson from Dragháls in Svínadalur. He is the youngest of eight siblings from Grafardalur. His parents were the couple Helga Pétursdóttir and Beinteinn Einarsson. In their home, poetry writing and songwriting were a daily activity, which Sveinbjörn took with his mother's milk. He was born on July 4, 1924, and the book is published on the occasion of his 60th birthday on July 4, 1984.
Sveinbjörn has lived in Dragháls since 1934 and has been farming since 1944.

For over a decade he has been the general idol of the Ásatrúarfélag (Associated Society of Iceland) and is known to many people both at home and abroad because of his work.
