Collected Poetry 1978-1998 (1998)

Hallgrimur Helgason
1998
367 pages
Poetry

In a revolt against the modern traditional poetry of the 20th century, Helgason turned to the old metric forms of the 19th century, mixing them with the current influences of rap and hip-hop music. The result was the thickest poetry book ever published in Iceland, illustrated by the author himself.
