The story "Pétur" by Olivia Clare tells about a woman who traveled with her middle-aged son to Iceland.
It was her dream to see her former husband's country. The story starts with the sentence "Ash fell from the wind" which was a volcanic eruption. The author described what people saw and felt during those days.
Olivia Clare combined it with the mood of the main characters and their attitude toward each other. They belong to one family but they are completely different.
The author created a great picture of the atmosphere in the countryside in Iceland, it shows how people adapted to severe nature.
