Over a period of two years, photographer Sigurgeir Sigurjonsson and author Unnur Jokulsdottir travelled the length and breadth of Iceland and visited people from all over the country. The result of their journey is the book Icelanders, which contains haunting photos of people and nature, amusing dialogue, and lyrical narrative spiced with gentle humour. Small-boat fishermen, jacks-of-all-trades, tourist farmers, fox hunters, rock collectors, hired women, and children of nature are among the people we meet – people who want to live their lives according to their own designs, in the environment they know best.
