“I tested my banana research on
random Icelanders. When I asked if
they knew or believed that Iceland
was producing hoards of bananas, the
response was equal parts rejection of
the claim and slight belief that it could
be true. “How come I’m still buying
Chiquita at the grocery store?”
Iceland has a sweet, starchy secret and it is
B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
“Not to be outdone, Lady Liberty lights
the way to overflowing buckets of pret-
zel sticks, Jello mix, and marshmallow
fluff. Welcome to America Days: help
yourself to some high fructose corn
syrup.”
American culture exists somewhere be-
tween a donut burger and the bottom of a
can of Tab.
“There’s a drive with graffiti that’s
hard to replicate anywhere else,’
Guido says. ‘What inspired me
was that people were going to see
it. It’s out on the street, you see it
immediately; it’s going to be judged
immediately.”
Australian street artist brings his watercolor
inspired works to life on Reykavík’s walls.
“It was odd that Iceland had never had its
own crime fiction festival. By the time we
met again a few weeks later, the decision
had more or less been made to organise
Iceland Noir ourselves.”
Of course the most criminal event taking
place in Iceland this month is a crime fiction
festival.
