Modern Icelandic Plays: Eyvind of the Hills and the Hraun Farm (1916)

Modern Icelandic Plays: Eyvind Of The Hills And The Hraun Farm is a collection of two plays by Icelandic playwright Johann Sigurjonsson, originally published in 1916. The first play, Eyvind Of The Hills, tells the story of a man named Eyvind who, after being falsely accused of murder, becomes an outlaw and lives in the hills with his wife. The play explores themes of love, loyalty, and justice in a rural Icelandic setting. The second play, The Hraun Farm, is a drama set on a farm in Iceland and follows the struggles of a family as they deal with poverty, illness, and the harsh realities of life. Both plays are considered classics of Icelandic literature and provide insight into the cultural and social landscape of early 20th century Iceland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
