The Laxdaela Saga is an interconnected group of stories and myths
which originate from Iceland in the Early Middle Ages. Bringing
together a collection of ancient Nordic myths and legends, this
book tells the story of Gu r n sv frsd ttir, Kjartan lafsson and
Bolli orleiksson. The three are involved in a love triangle:
although Bolli and Kjartan are childhood friends with a long
history of helping one another, they come to blows over their
shared love of Gu r n. Unusually feminine in tone and subject
matter, historians of Icelandic lore venture that the Laxdaela Saga
was authored by a woman. For a time, the story was passed on
through the oral tradition: the first records upon paper date to
the mid-13th century, some 300 years since the saga is originally
thought to have arisen within the culture of Iceland.
