Bjarni Bjarnason is an Icelandic writer born on 9 November 1965 in Reykjavík. He started writing poetry in his teens and by twenty had a play. He has received the Tómas Guðmundsson Award, Halldór Laxness Literature Award, and in 1996 was nominated for the Icelandic Literature Prize.〔(Iceland literature site )〕 Bjarni's early work was self-published, and did not receive much attention. However, his 1996 novel ''Endurkoma Maríu'' ('The Return of Mary) was a critical success: 'the novel is a fantastic tale of an unusually talented young woman and an unusual young man who loves her from afar. It takes place in several cities that show distinct similarities to certain European cities but are clearly illusory spaces'.〔Ástráður Eysteinsson and Úfhildur Dagsdóttir, 'Icelandic Prose Literature, 1940--2000', in ''A History of Icelandic Literature'', ed. by Daisy Nejmann, History of Scandinavian literatures, 5 (University of Nebraska Press: 2007), pp. 404--70 (p. 451).〕 In the estimation of Ástráður Eysteinsson and Úfhildur Dagsdóttir, 'Time is an important element in all his novels; their imagery is influenced by ancient myths and invested with a fairy tale atmosphere while simultaneously referring to modern phenomena.'〔Ástráður Eysteinsson and Úfhildur Dagsdóttir, 'Icelandic Prose Literature, 1940--2000', in ''A History of Icelandic Literature'', ed. by Daisy Nejmann, History of Scandinavian literatures, 5 (University of Nebraska Press: 2007), pp. 404--70 (p. 451).〕 ==Works== Works are novels unless otherwise stated. * Hálfsnert stúlka 2014 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bjarni Bjarnason」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
