Laxdaela Saga - Translated from the Icelandic of Ancient Nordic Folklore, Myths and Legends (Paperback)

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.
