The Immigrant. A novel by Ólafur Jóhann Ólafsson.
An immigrant is found dead outside on Örfirisey on a dark and cold February day. That same weekend, the nation becomes obsessed with the disappearance of a young Icelandic girl who disappears without a trace in the darkness, snow, and wilderness.
Hildur Haraldsdóttir, who has lived in New York for years, comes to Iceland with the remains of her friend to fulfill his last wish. She has translated the Quran into Icelandic and the police seek her advice in connection with the immigrant's death. She herself is under attack from the West and is now also sucked into the Icelandic slang.
The Immigrant is an amazing novel about the power and clash of cultures, about the paths of love and harsh fate, about the pleasures of life, human hopes and disappointments.
