Too many Icelanders, this is the essence of Icelandic literature! Njáls Saga or Brennu-Njáls Saga is a story published in the 13th century that describes events which are believed to have taken place in South Iceland between the years 960 and 1020. The main characters are Njáll, hence Njáls Saga, his best friend Gunnar and their wives Bergþóra and Hallgerður. Even though they are best friends, the women are anything but which eventually leads to fatal feuds between them. The saga deals with honor, love, revenge, hardship, battles, family and class distinctions in the Icelandic Commonwealth.

The work is still to this day listed as anonymous although there have been great speculations of the author’s identity. The way the story is told and the material it provides tells a great deal. Njáls saga is the longest and most developed of the Icelandic Sagas. To have descriptions of this era in such detail and length are unique even at a global scale.
