Yes, Icelanders are notoriously unpunctual. Yes, they have annoying breaks in movie theatres in the middle of the show. And yes, they don't know moderate drinking - at all. Whilst indulging in xenophobic and superficially-appearing yet "so true" facts about Icelanders, it becomes clear that Icelanders are charming folk, who the author loves just as much as the reader will., 'Fantastic portrayal of a nation. I'm Icelandic myself and everything this book states is completely correct and a greatly humorous view of the nation.', Great & Humorous Insight.

Synopsis
""Not only has an Icelander held the title of World's Strongest Man, but there have been several Icelandic Miss Worlds. There have also been a surprising number of Icelandic chess grandmasters, and Iceland has more writers and artists per capita than any other country on earth. These facts reinforce the Icelanders' belief that they are a nation of strong, beautiful and intelligent people.""""The essence of Icelandic conversation is the insult. Icelanders are born with a talent for it and use it with ease from an early age. Because of their farming and fishing ancestry the most telling jibes involve sheep and fish. It is a very serious matter to refer to someone as a sheep or a codhead."", " Not only has an Icelander held the title of World's Strongest Man, but there have been several Icelandic Miss Worlds.
