Defense and memories. Matthías Johannessen tells the story.
Defense and Memories is the poet Matthías Johannessen's confrontation with his contemporaries. Matthías was in the firing line of social debate for decades as editor of Morgunblaðið. Now he looks at the battlefield from a distance that gives him the opportunity to analyze and interpret what he sees. Empathy and enthusiasm characterize Matthías's style, which is passionate and widely applicable. Here, poetry and faith, humanity and art, temporary gain and permanent values, origins, roots, language and modern media are discussed. Poems and letters, conversations and epigrams, everything falls into the same vein and shapes the effective defense of the poet who has weathered terrors and storms and has much to remember. (Bókatíðindi 2004).
