Thorarinn Eldjarn gleans knowledge from his curiosity, approaching people and wonders past and present with sensitivity. His creative well is abundant and  his humour is never far away.

Thorarinn Eldjarn is nationally known for his artistically styled and concise short stories. Coverage contains eight clever, hilarious tales from the workshop of  Thorarinn Eldjarn. The stories are from the past and the present, short and long, with memorable characters and varied topics: Retirees working at the folklore museum, a successful 18th century voyage, bobsleighs and car washing, self-talkers and stage performances, Thordur Malakoff og August Strindberg – and a light has been shone on a few things that have been kept secret.

“There are plenty of surprises in Thorarinn’s short stories, where the author’s sense of humor shines.”
BJORN THORLAKSSON, FRETTABLADID DAILY

“Coverage offers a heaping helping of very effective storytelling.”
