Stefnumót: Smásögur Listahátiðar

The only judgment I really disagree with is that of the second prize. "Hallgrimur" by Egill Helgason is about a woman who imagines what it would be like, or perhaps rather what it would have been like, to carry the child of J6nas Hallgrimsson (1807-45), the most beloved of Icelandic poets, who died, much prematurely, of dissipation and a broken leg in Copenhagen. Frankly, I think it's a bore.
