The Reading Gang in 112

Would you like to join our reading circle?

We get together once a month to discuss and delve into all kinds of literature, by Icelandic as well as foreign authors. This semester we will  though focus on Irish contempory authors.

The aim is to create a platform to discuss and share our thoughts on literature and to have a cozy time together at the library.

The books we read are available both in English and in Icelandic translations.

The meet-ups take place at Spöngin City Library in Grafarvogur, once a month from 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm.
