Suðurgluggin

Gyrðir Elíasson

Novels are a millstone
around the neck of an author

An author has gone to a friend's holiday cottage next to a small village in the hopes of writing a novel - a rather demanding task, seeing as the author cannot seem to get started. The author's productivity is limited, and the typewriter remains covered for the most part as a result. 
The author does not interact much with others and seems to have come to terms with the idea that artists sometimes need to isolate themselves. While little is written, the reader is nevertheless granted a golden opportunity to dive into the mind of a fascinating and diverse character - as well as familiarize themselves with the people and setting of the story

In the novel SANDÁBÓKIN (The Book of Sandá River), which was recently published, Gyrðir Elíasson portrays similar circumstances, but with a painter as the protagonist of the story. In SUÐURGLUGGANUM (The South Window), Elíasson writes a new and relevant story regarding the role of another artist, namely an author.
