A review by lauravandenbossche
Salka Valka by Halldór Laxness
4.0
World literature at its best.
Laxness paints a captivating picture of Iceland in this "political love story"! I would not have wanted to read anything else while driving along the Westfjords. It is also quite astonishing that Halldor Laxness was only in his twenties when writing this. Who knew a twenty-something man could write so beautifully about the inner life of a girl... Kudos my man.
