5.0 out of 5 stars
2nd Half of Review Below is Missing,
By A Customer
This review is from: Njal's Saga (Library of Scandinavian Literature Vol 3) (Hardcover)
A good book -- one of the finest of the Icelandic sagas. Still the review below doesn't do it justice since only half of what I wrote is shown. Amazon.com had indicated they would add the second half (which was inadvertently cut off in the original submission and which I ended up re-writing for inclusion @ their suggestion). Unfortunately, though I did the re-write (& communicated about it w/them numerous times) the inclusion was never made. As a result the review below continues in its truncated & misleading form. But don't be put off by the fact that it seems to stop in the middle. The saga, itself, does not but goes on to a powerful & compelling end, which makes this one of the great pieces of world literature -- although it is little recognized as such. -- Stuart W. Mirsky

This review is from: Njal's Saga (Library of Scandinavian Literature Vol 3) (Hardcover)
ok, i din't expect a lot so i got more than i expected but i was pleasantly surprized at the drama of njal's saga.sometimes the writing is a bit tiresome (it just goes back and forth, back and forth) but there is a great story here that should be read. |
