Shadow Sun. A Memoir. By Björg Guðrúna Gísladóttir.
Björg Guðrún Gísladóttir was a wanderer in the darkness of adolescence with a broken identity, childhood traumas in her bag and not knowing where she was going in life. She participated in the Miss Iceland competition, she got a boyfriend so she could move away from home, but who was she and what did she want for herself?
Björg's journey from a directionless teenage girl to a proud, mature woman who is at peace with herself and her past was far from easy. Behind her is a journey across the globe in search of happiness, marriages that were doomed to failure, she left the villa of her dreams and headed out into the unknown, fought forbidden feelings that she finally faced, and then found the sun and herself in an unexpected place.
Björg Guðrún Gísladóttir attracted national attention for her memoir, Sounds of the Night, about growing up in Cape Town. The book caused a great stir in society and was nominated for the Icelandic Literature Prize. In Skuggasól, she writes her story in simple but powerful text that will live on in the reader's mind for a long time.
