Drápa: A Murder Mystery

By Gerður Kristný

Book Overview

Celebrated Icelandic writer Ger ur Kristn 's Dr pa is a novel-poem which takes its form from Old Norse shield poetry and its mood from modern Nordic crime. But the poem is no fiction: it is about a real woman's murder in the city of Reykjavik, and, through this lens, about all women's deaths. This is Viking poetry at its most contemporary.
