Produktinformationen zu „History. A Mess. (ePub)“
A young PhD student believes she has uncovered the first professional female artist in Britain. It's a discovery that could transform her career and reputation. However, in her haste to break new ground, she has made a simple mistake which threatens everything - and she won't acknowledge her error until it's far too late. As she goes to ever greater lengths to protect her work from the truth, she begins to lose her grip on her thesis, her life and ultimately her sanity. History. A Mess. is a remarkable exploration of intellectual integrity and denial, and a gripping and satirical portrait of academic ambition.

She was the editor of Saga, the principal peer-reviewed journal for Icelandic history, from 2008 to 2016. She first came to prominence as an author of historical biographies, including the 19th century biography Þóra biskups (Thora. A Bishop's Daughter, 2010) and Sigrún og Friðgeir (Uncertain Seas, 2013), and has since published three novels. Pálsdóttir's work has been nominated for the Icelandic Literary Prize, the Icelandic Women's Literature Prize, the Hagþenkir Non-fiction Prize and the DV Culture Prize.
