Poet, musician, wit, and polemicist—Bill Holm is one of kind. A
Minnesotan of Icelandic ancestry, his travels have taken him all
over the world, providing material for a number of rich and
memorable books. In this, his most ambitious work to date—a book
“as forceful, insightful, and lyrical as ever” (Los Angeles
Times)—Holm travels to Brimnes, his fisherman’s cottage on the
shore of a fjord in northern Iceland. Looking west from this place
of seemingly endless and kaleidoscopic light, and surrounded by
little more than the sound of the sea and the birds beyond his
windows, he considers America—“my home, my citizenship, my
burden.” In the tradition of Walt Whitman and Henry
Thoreau, The Windows of Brimnes offers a singular
perspective that is at once incisive and amusing, provocative and
congenial.
