Hannah Kent: Always Home, Always Homesick
A love letter to Iceland
In 2003, 17-year-old Australian exchange student Hannah Kent arrives at Keflavík Airport in the middle of the Icelandic winter.
Always Home, Always Homesick is Hannah’s exquisite love letter to a land that has forged a nation of storytellers, her ode to the transcendent power of creativity, and her invitation to us all to join her in the realms of mystery, spirit and wonder.
Sit down with Hannah as she reflect on the writing of her memoir and shares how Iceland shaped the person she is today.
