Another HUGE difference is that Icelandic publishers NEVER TALK ABOUT BOOKS THAT AREN’T OUT.
They say Icelanders will just get mad if they see an ad for - or read a review about - something they can’t get in a store yet. So they treat books like a secret, until they are out on shelves.

Helmsley Castle by Samuel Bough (1822–1878). He was born in Carlisle to a poor family, but one who encouraged his interest in art. He is best known as a painter of maritime scenes. The castle offers a comprehensive chronicle of construction spanning from the 12th to the 16th centuries.

On the plus side, an hour or so productive working and the chance to catch up with some lovely messages from friends from afar.
