Description
Against the backdrop of Iceland’s 2009 financial collapse, a British family begins an uncertain new life in Reykjavík, navigating unfamiliar customs, landscapes, and the challenges of settling in as outsiders. Through journeys across volcanic terrain, remote communities, and the country’s northern reaches, the narrative offers vivid encounters with Iceland’s natural beauty and resilient culture. Blending travel writing, memoir, and keen social observation, it explores family, belonging, displacement, and the meaning of home.
