Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Andreas William Heinesen (15 January 1900 - 12 March 1991) is the most famous writer from the Faroe Islands. He was also a poet, a composer and a painter. The Faroese capital Torshavn is always the centre of Heinesen's writing. He is famous for having once called Torshavn "the navel of the World." His writing focuses on contrasts between darkness and light, between destruction and creativity. Then following is the existential struggle of man to take sides. This is not always easy, however, and the lines between good and bad are not always clearly defined. Furthermore, Heinesen was captivated by the mysterious part of life. He called himself religious in the broadest sense of the word. His life could be described as a struggle against defeatism. One oft-quoted aphorism of his is that "life is not despair, and death shall not rule." As he was born and raised before the Faroese language was taught in the schools, he wrote mainly in Danish but his spoken language was Faroese. All his books are later translated into his native Faroese. He published his first collection of poetry when he was 21. He had three more published before he wrote his first novel Blaesende gry - Stormy Dawn - in 1934. He read every single one of the chapters to the painter Samal Joensen-Mikines, as he was worried that his Danish wasn't good enough. That was followed up with Noatun (1938). Noatun has a strong political message - solidarity is the key to a good society. His next book The Black Cauldron (1949) deals with the aftermath of decadent living combined with religious hysteria.
