Under the Scythe's Egg. A novel by Guðmundur Halldórsson from Bergsstaðir.
Under the Scythe's Edge is a short novel, but a rich one, and blessedly free from slander and digressions. Here the author has again chosen an environment and landscape that he knows well, and has people there whom he describes with poetic understanding and compassion. And here the narrator has become something more than a neutral observer. He himself is at a crossroads, where two worlds, old and new, force him heavily and surely to make a decision that will determine his fate and outlook on life. And yet perhaps it is above all in his own heart that his fate has been decided? (Cover text).
