“Island” by Siri Ranva Hjelm Jacobsen

Island explores belonging, assimilation and life on the Faroe Islands

“What is home?” and “Where do I belong?” are two big questions that have inspired countless novels, songs and poems since time immemorial. In her new novella “Island” Danish-Faroese author Siri Ranva Hjelm Jacobsen explores that question and how migration can change the course of a family's history.
