Recesses of the Mind: Aesthetics in the Work of Guobergur Bergsson

Recesses of the Mind explores Guðbergur Bergsson's aesthetics of life and literature. Bergsson - like so many writers whose language is not widely spoken or read - is scarcely known outside his homeland, but the psychological depth of his vision reveals the minds of his characters in ways that are reminiscent of novelists such as Hamsun, Faulkner, and Garcia Márquez.
