Four Friends and One Enemy Are Indoors in Outside, Anglicized from Úti

Summary: Four friends and one enemy are indoors in Outside, anglicized from Úti, second thriller in the standalone novel trio authored by Ragnar Jónasson.

Rock ptarmigans (rjúpa locally, Lagopus muta scientifically) account for tour guide and tour company owner-operator Ármann (“army man, army protection, messenger, protective spirit”) altering reunion agenda from club- and pub-crawling through southwest Iceland to availing themselves of November hunts for edible wildlife; Friday, April 8, 2011, 14:41, image of rock ptarmigan taken on Reykjanes Peninsula, south of Garður, west of Route 45: Ómar Runólfsson, CC BY 2.0 Generic, via Wikimedia Commons

Four friends and one enemy are indoors in Outside, anglicized from Úti, second thriller, after The Girl Who Died and before White Death, in the standalone novel trio authored by Ragnar Jónasson.

A weekend get-together, after at least a two-year-long hiatus from regular reunions since college graduation, brings one Icelander from London, England, to southwestern and eastern Iceland. Daníel (“[my] judge is god”) catches a plane from London, England, to Keflavíkurflugvöllur (Keflavík Airport) west of Keflavík (“driftwood bay”) and southwest of Reykjavík (“smoky bay”). The 30-year-old Icelander depends on a Thursday through Sunday with one childhood chum and two college chums and without his 19-year-old girlfriend, a United Kingdom citizen.

Perhaps it enrages his girlfriend that Daníel entertains experiences excluding her and enjoyable by one female and two male Icelanders who never fly to Great Britain.

Gunnlaugur follows Daníel from childhood fun, through neighborhood schools, to Reykjavík college, which he finishes before flying to London, where he fares fine in drama school.

Daníel gets nothing grand, apart one understudy to a lead actor and one walk-on part before going to London, where non-acting earnings give him his apartment. His homely, homey apartment houses his girlfriend, who hones a far huger career, perhaps harvesting Daníel’s drama curriculum and practicum without having educational or household expenses. It is inconsistent with mutually beneficial interactions that she inveighs against Daníel itinerating to inland, winter-invaded Iceland in November instead of interior, tourist-invaded Iceland in summer.

Perhaps jealous judgments against four friends jolt one enemy into journeying whenever, wherever the latter join together indoors, outdoors, summertime, wintertime, in Outside, anglicized from Úti.

Daníel knows Gunnlaugur keeping to himself from early and middle childhood (ages newborn-5 years, 6-12 years), through adolescence (ages 13-18 years), to adulthood (ages 18-plus years).

Ármann and Helena perhaps link more lastingly with one another than with Daníel even as all three sometimes like to leave Gunnlaugur out of their reunions. And yet Gunnlaugur mimics author Ragnar (“advice army”) Jónasson (“gracious god’s son”) and the latter’s younger brother, Tómas (“twin”), professionally in mattering as a Reykjavík lawyer. He otherwise numbers, not at all like the above-noted, nice-tempered siblings, among nasty-tempered loners who nurture nice temperaments when necessary even as they nab vulnerable women.

One enemy perhaps observes, of four friends, only Ármann and Gunnlaugur obsessing over operating their shotguns against others and for oneself in Outside, anglicized from Úti.

It pleases Ármann to perceive wildlife perishing from shotgun bullets even as Daníel, unlike Gunnlaugur, never profited from a father who pushes pulling triggers against wildlife.

Women such as Helena quickly quit Gunnlaugur even as they queue around Ármann and Daníel and around and away from such men as Víkingur (“bay-dwellers, camp-settlers”). Helena ruminates relentlessly, remorsefully regarding how Víkingur reaped a regrettable, remote death after their ruined romance even as Ármann resists regressing to his drug-dealing, drug-using romps. Gunnlaugur and Helena seem second to Ármann in soldiering through snowstorms and solitude even as Daníel shows up second to them until their emergency-shelter sæluhús stayover.

One enemy turns, ever more traumatically for four friends, a terrible trek to trouble, if not terminate, at least four ptarmigans in Outside, anglicized from Úti.

Emergency refuge huts, acknowledged as sæluhús (Romanized saeluhús, hospice, refuge hut, "bliss house" literally), add ancient, red accents to highland east Iceland. They archive the ancient Icelandic hut of inland and rural farmers, fishers and hunters. They are red-painted, with doors and, if lockable, with key boxes for keys if passersby are not acquainted with door-opening locked-door codes: Icelandic hut, extracted from "Dwellings of Different Peoples and Countries," in Chandler B.
