Oskar Gudmundsson Author

With a unique voice and a style that doesn't shy away from a sometimes graphic take on shocking subject matter, Oskar Gudmundsson is one of the rising stars of the Icelandic crime fiction scene. His debut novel, Hilma, was awarded the Icelandic Crime Syndicate's Drop of Blood award for the best crime novel of 2015. The first in a new series of novels, The Dancer was published in Icelandic simultaneously as an ebook, audiobook and paperback - accompanied by an original song in which Oskar's words have been put to music featuring some of Iceland's leading musicians - and was an immediate bestseller. Oskar's talents don't end there, as he's also an artist and has held a number of exhibitions of his work.
