Icelandic Kings. A novel by Einar Má Guðmundsson.
The Knudsens have lived in Tangavík for more than two centuries. There they have built herring smelters, warehouses and shops, sat on town councils and town boards, owned stockyards, flour mills, motorboats, trawlers and freezers, and managed bugle bands, male choirs and women's clubs. The Knudsen family has had its heydays and its ups and downs. It has disappeared and returned, as happens with royal families, being both wildly popular and extremely unpopular, and everything in between.
The Knudsens of Tangavík are a colorful and loyal family with capable shipowners, devoted bank managers, hard-drinking convenience store owners, beloved members of parliament, temperamental beauty queens, and even lovable village idiots.
Their story is intertwined with the history of the people, for they have ruled over it since time immemorial. The story is told by an old student of Arnfinn Knudsen, one of the most illustrious representatives of the family from the beginning.
