Kristjana Gunnars

Essays on Her Works

By Monique Tschofen

The writings collected here all testify to the complexity of Gunnars' literary visions as much as they testify to the sheer pleasures of reading her work. In her interview, Gunnars speaks both as a reader and a writer, describing the form and modes of address of her work, as well as the philosophical and literary traditions she draws from. The nine essays and two poems, organized chronologically according to the publication dates of the primary texts they treat, represent a broad range of approaches to Kristjana Gunnars' work.
