Dreamland: Self-Help for a Frightened Nation (2006)

Dreamland is a wake-up call, a devastating polemic that puts environmental issues into global perspective. Dreamland is an influential book about the most burning issues of our times, written with knowledge and a rare passion that will move any reader.

Dreamland immediately became a best seller on publication in Iceland and has already attracted worldwide attention due to its radical style, in the vein of Naomi Klein, Malcolm Gladwell and Jared Diamond, as well as critical acclaim from the Icelandic media.

Revised edition with an introduction by Björk and a new chapter on the bank crisis in Iceland. Dreamland has been made into a movie.
