A meeting with the poet Halldór Laxness. Publisher Ólafur Ragnarsson tells the story.
In portraits, conversations and flashbacks, Ólafur Ragnarsson paints a picture of the writer and man Halldór Laxness. This is largely based on their acquaintance for almost thirteen years, the relationship between poet and publisher. The reader follows Ólafur to a meeting with Halldór, follows their conversations and enjoys being in the happy presence of the Nobel Prize-winning poet. Where appropriate, short excerpts from Halldór's unpublished private letters, notebooks, manuscripts and books or quotes from other sources are inserted into the conversations for clarity. This book probably contains the last unpublished conversations with Halldór Laxness – and some of the most entertaining. ( Bókatíðindi) 2007 ).
