The Blue Fox by Sjón

4.0

A wonderful small tale, translated from the Icelandic. I enjoyed the sparse prose, the descriptions of nature, the appreciation of tea, the inclusion of disability, and the narrative structure (there are four parts set at different times during the 19th century that form a whole, just like the puzzle that appears in the story). I felt very sorry for the vixen but it also seemed like she got her revenge in the end.
