Vignettes II entices the reader along on a magical journey.\u00a0 With an eye for accuracy, Armann Reynisson delights the imagination and provides flashes of insights into human nature that are sometimes sensitive and at other times candid and daring.\u00a0 It is a journey that takes us to Iceland and beyond, but one that constantly opens new vistas into the unfamiliar.\u00a0 The stories lead the reader on from one event to another with a sense of unity in variation until they find echoes in our own experience.\u00a0 Sometimes fewer words can create the clearest image.\u00a0 The shortest story can make the boldest point.\u00a0 These vignettes are both easily visualised portraits, or like short plays that beg to be read out loud.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
