{{Italic title}}

Illska ('evil'), published by Mál og menning in 2012, is an Icelandic novel, the fourth by Eiríkur Örn Norðdahl. It won the 2012 Icelandic Literary Prize for fiction,[1] and was chosen as best Scandinavian fiction by the French literary magazine Transfuge.[2] The book has been widely translated and reviewed.

Summary

Illska is set around 2010. Its main characters are Agnes Lukauskaite, a second-generation Jewish immigrant from Lithuania researching far-right populism for her MA thesis in history at the University of Iceland; her boyfriend Ómar Arnarson, a graduate in Icelandic linguistics left unemployed by the 2008 Icelandic financial crisis; and Arnór Þórðarson, a PhD-student in history and a far-right activist, who becomes Agnes's love-interest later in the novel. The novel intercalates musings in the narratorial voice about racism and right-wing populism, along with an account of Agnes's grandparents' experience of the Holocaust from their home town of Jurbarkas.[3]
