Names for the Sea

I just enjoyed Names for the Sea by Sarah Moss. The book brought up so much stuff about cultural expectation and differences set in a landscape and environment that is itself a striking difference. She brings an enjoyment, curiosity and openness to the task of living with her family in another culture and teaching there. As she digs deeper into the history and culture to grow her understanding my appreciation of Iceland was enlarged and enriched. A really good book.
