Father Jón Sveinsson. Nun. By Gunnar F. Guðmundsson.
Gunnar F. Guðmundsson received the Icelandic Literary Prize for this book.
Jón Sveinsson was a well-known children's book author on the European continent until the middle of the last century. His nun books were translated into about 30 languages and printed in hundreds of thousands if not millions of copies. Father Jón Sveinsson was a cosmopolitan on the outside who moved with foreign nations and traveled between the corners of the world, but also lived all the time in the world of memories under the shelter of his mother at home in Iceland, which he had to leave at the age of 12. Historian Gunnar F. Guðmundsson has researched the life of Nonna for years and has presented this unique life in a magnificent book with numerous photographs. (Bókatíðindi 2012).
