- text: Hverrar tr�ar var Halld�r Laxness ?
context: 'Halld�r Kiljan Laxness was born in 1902 in Reykjavik , the capital of
Iceland , but spent his youth in the country . From the age of seventeen on ,
he travelled and lived abroad , chiefly on the European continent . He was influenced
by expressionism and other modern currents in Germany and France . In the mid-twenties
he was converted to Catholicism ; his spiritual experiences are reflected in several
books of an autobiographical nature , chiefly Undir Helgahn�k ( Under the Holy
Mountain ) , 1924 . In 1927 , he published his first important novel , Vefarinn
mikli fr� Kasm�r ( The Great Weaver from Kashmir ) . Laxness�s religious period
did not last long ; during a visit to America he became attracted to socialism
. Al�ydub�kin ( The Book of the People ) , 1929 , is evidence of a change toward
a socialist outlook . In 1930 , Laxness settled in Iceland . Laxness�s main achievement
consists of three novel cycles written during the thirties , dealing with the
people of Iceland . �� v�nvi�ur hreini , 1931 , and Fuglinn � fj�runni , 1932
, ( both translated as Salka Valka ) , tell the story of a poor fisher girl ;
Sj�lfst�tt f�lk ( Independent People ) , 1934 - 35 , treats the fortunes of small
farmers , whereas the tetralogy Lj�s heimsins ( The Light of the World ) , 1937
- 40 , has as its hero an Icelandic folk poet . Laxness�s later works are frequently
historical and influenced by the saga tradition : �slandsklukkan ( The Bell of
Iceland ) , 1943 - 46 , Gerpla ( The Happy Warriors ) , 1952 , and Parad�sarheimt
( Paradise Reclaimed ) , 1960 . Laxness is also the author of the topical and
sharply polemical At�mst��in ( The Atom Station ) , 1948 .'
