Crimsoning the Eagle's Claw Paperback / softback
by Rognvaldr Kali Kolsson
Part of the Arc Classics: New Translations of Great Poets of the Past series
Paperback / softback
Description
A genuinely unique European treasure, this volume bristles with all 33 of Rognvaldr's verses from the Orkneyinga Saga.
While full of highly stylised, often grotesque images, the poems convey the skill, vigour and daring of the original. Rich narratives and old Norse mythology blend with familiar place-names and landscapes to create a peculiarly alluring, sometime comic, world that never quite settles around the reader, as if time travel is possible from a favourite armchair.
