Description:Hi, and thank you for your interest in The Little Book of the Icelanders – a collection of 50 miniature essays about the quirks and foibles of the Icelandic people and what it is like to live in their midst.In 1994, I moved back to Iceland after more than 20 years of living abroad, and ever since I have been in the enviable [to me!] position of being both an insider and an outsider in Icelandic society.I figure this makes me sufficiently qualified to dissect the national psyche of the Icelandic people.Among the fascinating subjects broached in the book: * the appalling driving habits of the Icelanders * naming conventions and customs * the Icelanders’ profound fear of commitment * the Icelander’s penchant for irreverence * why Icelandic women are really men * how the Icelanders manage to make social interactions really complicated * the importance of the family in Icelandic society * where to go to meet the real Icelanders [and possibly score some free financial advice] * Rituals associated with weddings, confirmations, graduations, and deaths… and many, many more.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
