Olafur Johann Olafsson Reserve Kit The Journey Home For years Disa Jonsdottir has lived in the English countryside, managing an inn with her companion, Anthony. Compelled by the demands of time to revisit the village of her childhood, she departs England for her native Iceland. Along the way memories surface-of the rift between her and her mother, of the fate of her German-Jewish lover, of the trauma she experienced while working as a cook in a wealthy household. Skillfully weaving past and present, Olafsson builds toward an emotional climax that renders "The Journey Home" moving, suspenseful, and unforgettable. 296 p. 2000 Adult Fiction Book Discussion Questions
