Jonathan Stroud Zitate

I read a bit of the Icelandic sagas. They're fascinating in that they are completely ordinary. The farmer will go off into the hills and fight a troll, and then go back and do ordinary things. It's an odd mix of fantasy and reality.

Ich habe ein bisschen von den isländischen Sagen gelesen. Sie sind faszinierend, weil sie ganz gewöhnlich sind. Der Bauer geht in die Berge und kämpft gegen einen Troll, kehrt dann zurück und macht gewöhnliche Dinge. Es ist eine merkwürdige Mischung aus Fantasie und Realität.
