Story
Young Lobbi was preparing to leave his childhood home, his autistic brother, his octogenarian father, and the familiar landscape of mossy lava fields for an unknown future. Soon before his departure, he received an awful phone call: His mother was in a car accident. She used her dying words to offer calm advice to her son, urging him to continue their shared work in the greenhouse tending to the rare Rosa candida. Prior to his mother’s death, in that very same greenhouse, Lobbi made love to Anna, a friend of a friend, and just as he readies his departure he learns that in their brief night together they conceived a child.

Story
Romanen Ar handler om Jonas Ebeneser, en mand i slutningen af fyrrerne, som efter en traumatiserende skilsmisse beslutter at begå selvmord. Han afhænder sin virksomhed og rejser til et fjernt land, som kort tid forinden har været skueplads for en heftig borgerkrig. Jonas har altid været en handyman og hjælper hotellet, han bor på, med forefaldende reparationsopgaver. I sin sparsomme bagage har han nemlig medbragt en boremaskine - i den tro, at han på et tidspunkt skulle skrue en krog i et loft. Langsomt begynder den selvmordstruede at finde tilbage til livet.

Story
In the days leading up to Christmas, Dómhildur delivers her 1,922nd baby. Beginnings and endings are her family trade; she comes from a long line of midwives on her mother’s side and a long line of undertakers on her father’s. She even lives in the apartment that she inherited from her grandaunt, a midwife with a unique reputation for her unconventional methods.

Story
Alba all'ultimo convegno a cui partecipa. Linguista, docente universitaria, correttrice di bozze, Alba è un'esperta - e un'amante - delle parole, e il tema delle lingue in pericolo di estinzione le sta a cuore, dal momento che l'islandese ne fa parte. Per questo interviene in conferenze in tutto il mondo, il che per lei, abitante di un'isola a nord del Circolo polare artico, significa per forza salire su un aereo. Di ritorno dal convegno, Alba fa una riflessione: per compensare la sua impronta di carbonio di quell'anno, dovrebbe piantare cinquemilaseicento alberi.

Story
I Stiklingen følger vi islandske Arnljotur Thorir, der er 22 år og har tre ting i hovedet: sex, døden og roser. Han ved ikke hvad han vil bruge sit liv på, men han har i hvert fald ikke lyst til at studere, sådan som hans gamle far synes han skal. I stedet gør han det som hans afdøde mor ville have rådet ham til og følger sin drøm om at blive gartner i en af verdens mest berømte klosterhaver.

Story
"Tu ne laisses rien affleurer à la surface. Quand on vit avec un volcan, on sait que les profondeurs bouillonnent de lave incandescente. Tu sais, Hekla, tu projettes d'énormes blocs de pierre dans toutes les directions... ils détruisent tout sur leur passage... tu es un rocher imprenable, un buisson de ronces..." La jeune Hekla, par un beau jour de l'année 1963, débarque de sa campagne à Reykjavik. Elle veut devenir écrivaine.
