Where The Sagas Come From
-
Ever been told you have a book in you? They take that to heart in Iceland, where one in ten people will publish a book. More writers per capita than anyplace else on Earth. And if you're prepared to make a particular joke about it, a novelist interviewed in this piece says it for real: it's dark and cold and they had nothing else to do. Thus, everybody writes and everybody reads. I'd love it if not for, you know, the cold. (BBC)
