Literary Café | Árelía Eydís Guðmundsdóttir

Monday November 15th 2021

The novel Slétt og brugðið by Árelía Eydís Guðmundsdóttir was published last spring.

She will read from her book and talk about how it and her other books came into being.

„For several years six women have met in a sewing circle. One day they decide to do something completely different from what they usually do. Doing that is the beginning of an unexpected scenario that will influence the women greatly. Many of them are standing at a crossroad in their lives and this change in the usual order of the sewing circle helps them to meet difficulties in their professions as well as in their private lives“.

 Slétt og brugðið is a unique book that discusses the strength of women and the power of intimate friendships. It is written in an amusing and easy style. Slétt og brugðið is Árelía‘s third novel. Previously published are the books Tapað fundið and Sara. Árelía has also written articles and self-improvement books such as Á réttri hillu and Sterkari í seinni  hálfleik and she has arranged sceduled seminars in connection to her books.

Árelía is a docent at the University of Iceland School of Business as well as being a writer of books.
