“Ást mín á Arnóri hefur engan stað til að fara á núna. Stundum vildi ég að ég gæti fangað hana, lokað hana inni, en þá veit ég að ég myndi ég sakna hennar. Núna streymir hún bara frá mér í allar áttir hvenær sem er – kemur stundum út í tárum, stundum í brosi. Ég vildi að Arnór gæti séð mig núna. Ég held hann yrði stoltur. Hann sá eitthvað í mér sem enginn annar sá. Eitthvað sem fékk hann til að brosa í hvert skipti sem hann sá mig. Og ég bíð stundum eftir því að sjá hann birtast í dyragættinni heima hjá mér, eða úti einhvers staðar, á bar eða eitthvað, og brosa þessu breiða brosi sínu. Ég sver það er það fallegasta sem ég hef séð.”

“These dreams of far-off islands, lighthouses... What were they about? Like something calling me. That postcard my dad had sent, who knew when, with an image of an island in the Atlantic. I kept thinking of this National Geographic story I had read as a kid, about a matrilineal family of lighthouse keepers in Iceland, women who wore sealskin coats and were said by the locals to be descended from a Selkie woman. The Icelandic mermaids. Maybe I was like that--- too much time on the land, forgetting my true mermaid self, having lost my sea skin.”
