To the Islands. Edda Andrésdóttir tells the story.
Forty years after the earth tore apart on Heimaey, almost at the town gate in Kirkjubær, Edda Andrésdóttir visits times gone by. There she was a girl during the summers with her grandmother and maternal family and when Heimaey erupted she watched as numerous houses of her childhood became prey to lava, ash and fire, then a newly-minted journalist at Vís. Here the people of Kirkjubær are in the foreground, life and summers in the 1950s and 1960s, beautiful and personal memories of a lost home. (Bókatíðindi 2013).
