Animal Life (Dýralíf) by Auður Ava Ólafsdóttir
Grove Atlantic & Pushkin Press
"Deftly translated by Brian FitzGibbon"
"A probing, discursive meditation on the implications of a midwife as 'mother of light' ... FitzGibbon seamlessly handles many such lexical allusions and double meanings, and deserves special mention for the straightforward beauty of Fífa's writings and the novel's final poetic page."
"Animal Life is smoothly translated by Brian FitzGibbon, with a charming quirkiness retained in words such as “pipsqueak”.
