Salka Valka
Overview
Late one snowy midwinter night, in a remote Icelandic fishing village, a penniless woman arrives by boat. She comes with her daughter, the young but gusty Salka Valka. The two must forge a life in this remote place, where everyone is at the mercy of a single wealthy merchant, and where everything revolves around fish.
After her mother's tragic death, Salka grows into a firecely independent-minded adult — cutting off her hair, educating herself, and becoming an advocate for the town's working class. A coming-of-age story, a feminst tale, a lament for Iceland's poor — this is the funny, tender, epic story of Salka Valka.
