On Tuesday, October 6 at 2pm ET, the ongoing series, “Nordic Authors You Should Know,” at Scandinavia House continues with a focus on Icelandic literature with The Imposter Poets (Svikaskáld), a poetry collective made up of members Thórdís Helgadóttir, Thóra Hjörleifsdóttir, Fríða Ísberg, Ragnheiður Harpa Leifsdóttir, Sunna Dís Másdóttir, and Melkorka Ólafsdóttir, moderated by author and translator Larissa Kyzer.
