Christmas is approaching – and new titles are flooding the shelves. The Hafnarfjörður Library is celebrating carefully selected authors and their contribution to the Christmas book flood every Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. throughout November.
Jón Kalman is familiar to most bookworms, but here he presents his latest novel, Himintungl við heimsins ystu brún.
Jón Kalman Stefánsson was born in Reykjavík on 17 December 1963. He later lived in Keflavík and spent a great deal of time in the Dalar region in the west. During the years he lived in Copenhagen, he read, cleaned and counted buses. His first book, the poetry collection *With a Shooting Licence to Eternity*, was published in 1988.
Jón Kalman has been nominated for the Nordic Council's Literary Prize four times, and three times for the Icelandic one – or four times, as he won it once! That was for *Summerlight and Then Comes Night*, which was published in 2005. His books are translated into numerous languages; he is published in Denmark, Norway and Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands, France, Italy and Portugal… and the list goes on. The second book in the Westfjords Trilogy, The Angels' Grief, has just been published in Arabic.
