Island

A lyrical, moving tale of love, loss and belonging, across three generations of a Faroe Islands family

'Talks about places as if they were people, of fjords as if they were the wrinkles of our souls' GRAZIA ITALY

Family brings the young woman back to the Faroe Islands - the windswept, rocky northern archipelago where she has never lived but which she has always called home. There she finds her stories entwining with those of her ancestors as she searches for a way to connect with the culture and her kin. Is 'home' just a place name, or something more?

Split across three generations of a Faroese family, rooted in the wild beauty of the islands and the author's own history, this is a bewitching tale of exile, homecoming, and what it means to belong.
