Because Iceland is really just one big family, it\u2019s simply annoying to go around asking Icelanders if they\u2019ve met Bj\u00f6rk. Of course they\u2019ve met Bj\u00f6rk; who hasn\u2019t met Bj\u00f6rk? Who, for that matter, didn\u2019t know Bj\u00f6rk when she was two? \u201cYes, I know Bj\u00f6rk,\u201d a professor of finance at the University of Iceland says in reply to my question, in a weary tone. \u201cShe can\u2019t sing, and I know her mother from childhood, and they were both crazy. That she is so well known outside of Iceland tells me more about the world than it does about Bj\u00f6rk.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
