Heat At the Wax Museum contains clever, vivacious and concise stories from our present society – sharp and memorable stories about human existence and the ever-long search for truth and happiness.

Modern miracles aren‘t always spectacular; sometimes it‘s just an unexpected turn of events, or an unexplained incident, that shines a brand new light on the past, present, and future. Ordinary circumstances suddenly turn into a dream-like adventure and characters find new perspectives that turn their lives upside-down; a different point of view changes everything.

FIVE OF FIVE STARS
“The stories in this book are extremely well crafted, both dramatic and wickedly funny. The laid back style is elegant, lucid and lovely –  truly a pleasure to read.”
EINAR FALUR INGOLFSSON, MORGUNBLADID NEWSPAPER

“Pretty spectacular.”
EGILL HELGASON, KILJAN, NATIONAL TV

“…quite interesting stories, ironic, tragic and comic by turns, playful and sparkling with the author’s flights of imagination, stories of wonder that consistently surprise and yet are somehow so inevitable. The first story “Cry of the Comparative Linguist” is carefully crafted to give the reader insight into the loneliness and desires of a person determined to form no human connections and how those desires are to make a connection after all. Like other stories in the collection, this one does a stellar job at portraying how every person is the captive of their self and their own existence, and the definition of freedom is entirely dependent on the individual’s perspective. …
The stories are not interconnected apart from the overarching theme of existence… There are many perspectives at play and much imagination, and yet it is as though we are given glints of reality, the reality of a person or a people.
… [The book] brings the wondrous down to earth while urging us to consider the confines of reality from another perspective.” 
GAUTI KRISTMANNSSON, VIDSJA, NATIONAL BROADCASTING SERVICE
