About the project
Töfraloftbelgurinn is a collection of five short stories about an old woman, Málfríður, and the cat Prófessor who travel between places in a balloon.
On their way, they meet all sorts of magical creatures, experience a world no one has seen before, and have various adventures.
The stories are absurdist in style and Prófessor is the narrator of their journey.
Töfraloftbelgurinn is an illustrated children's book in Icelandic that brings the reader into the dream world, of whose inhabitants we may perhaps mention a troll, a tightrope dancer, and magical butterflies.
The final version is a book of about 40 pages.
The intention is that the book will be published in August.
