Poetry

Poetry by the Icelandic fiction writer Börkur Sigurbjörnsson. While in English, many of Börkur’s poems are written in the traditional Icelandic “ferskeytt” style.​ Börkur only recently ventured into writing poetry in English and, for the time being, the collection is a rather small one. His collection of Icelandic poems is larger.
