The Reykjavik International Literary Festival will celebrate its opening
\non Wednesday, September 8, and will close on September 11. This
\nyear, we are indeed celebrating with style, and our aim is to offer a
\nsumptuous and well-deserved feast to the readers, writers, publishers,
\nand book lovers at large.<\/p>\n
The festival has usually been held every two years ever since 1985, so
\nthis will be the fifteenth of its kind. A great many authors will be our
\nguests, as well as publishers and journalists from all over the world; they
\nall come to attend the festivities, meet readers, follow emerging trends in
\nthe world of literature, and get acquainted with new and promising
\ntalents among Icelandic authors.<\/p>\n
The Reykjavik International Literary Festival has its very own brand of
\nmagic, as the readers and the authors get an exceptional opportunity to
\nmix, mingle, and exchange views. The festival is their celebration, and
\nthe authors get a unique opportunity to meet their readers, while the
\nreaders get a chance to meet their favourite authors. In fact, the authors
\nwho have participated in the Reykjavik International Literary Festival
\nthroughout the years have said that they consider this unique closeness
\nto their readers as one of the highlights of their visit to Iceland.<\/p>\n
As before, the entrance to all events of the festival is open to all free of
\ncharge. The events are held in I\u00f0n\u00f3, the Nordic House, and at other
\nvenues. These will be advertised in due course on the social media and
\nthe festival \u2018s site, and we feel we can safely say that there will be
\nsomething to fit every taste. We bid you welcome to our capital, and to
\nour fifteenth festival!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2743,"template":"","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"frettaflokkar":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
