The Last Autumn
Síðasta haustið
More than a thousand autumns ago, humans arrived with their animals in a land squished up against the Arctic Ocean. Autumns came and autumns went. Where the road ends, Úlfar, the last in a long line of farmers, lives with his wife. As autumn returns their grandchildren arrive from the city for the last herding of the sheep. Next autumn farming will cease and the sheep will be gone, but the landscape by the Arctic Ocean will remain a witness of that one last autumn at the end of the world.
