Passion Psalms (2016)

It’s not easy being caught in the grasp of a writer; to suddenly become a character in a work of fiction where everything is more or less exaggerated, if not completely turned on its head. Many people know Einar Karason’s story of Eyvindur Jonsson, a.k.a. “Storm”, who lived in Denmark for several years and was described as a rather dubious character. That narrative was so distorted and full of misinformation that it needs to be put right. The truth will out. This time Storm takes to the podium, explains his side of the story, and rights wrongs. The author also expresses his point of view and offers comments, and so do Storm’s friends and family. All this is for the benefit of the readers, for their information – or at least for their entertainment. An incomparable read and play on the structure of the novel – Eyvindur Storm and Einar Karason join hands to create a fantastic and intricate comedy.
