65° - 01.07.1968, Qupperneq 38

65° is the reader’s magazine
on contemporary life
and thought in Iceland
It appeals to so many people ... Icelandic readers find it interesting because
it calls their attention to things they have taken for granted, gives them a
fresh slant on their favorite subjects of discussion and provides them with
an “inside picture” of Iceland which they can send to friends abroad — after
they have read it themselves! ... Icelandic writers, many confined to an Ice-
landic audience, find 65° a pleasant and worthy way to communicate with
the vast English-speaking audience in the world today ... Adapted Iceland-
ers, who are seldom perfect in the Icelandic language, enjoy reading this
magazine in English. Through 65° they get to know their adopted country
better and faster ... Foreign residents who speak no Icelandic read 65° to
bring them in touch and keep them in touch in a way that tourist magazines
do not ... Transplanted Icelanders, always anxious for news about Iceland,
read 65° with interest, happy too that their friends will also be able to read
this English language magazine, and confident in their own fluency in Eng-
lish ... and tourists to Iceland find in 65° the reasons for some of the
“differences” they notice on coming to Iceland.
65° is sold in most bookstores in Reykjavik, and is available at the
magazine counters of most hotels for the benefit of tourists and travellers
who would like to spend a rainy afternoon or a chilly evening, reading. Most
hotels carry back issues of 65° for those who have not yet read them, or if
not, can get them from the office at KjorgarSur, but since the circulation of
this privately owned magazine is limited, make sure you will always get a
copy by sending in one of the subscription blanks on the reverse page.
