The Essence of Iceland is a magnific and exclusive book with extraordinary photographs of Icelandic nature. It has been much praised and welcomed by readers and critics. The well-known and experienced photographer, Kristján Ingi Einarsson, journeys through the country´s wildest and most secluded reaches to capture its mood qand identity and shares with us his vision of Iceland´s true essence. Ari Trausti Guðmundsson, author and geoscientist, writes the effect of the photographs in his own words, both in poems and prose, along with informative and interesting details about each location.
The Essence of Iceland is available in English, German and French and always with Icelandic text aside. It´s the first book about Iceland that includes both poetry and photographs.
Forewords are by the president of Iceland, Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson. Exhibitions of the photographs have been displayed on several places in Iceland since the book was published.

 Páll Stefánsson, photographer:
“Kristján Ingi´s book is very elaborate and he has an exquisite view of form and colors. The book is very “Icelandic” in every way, and some of the pictures are singularly impressive.”
