Haraldur Björn Halldórsson is one of the people that lost their homes. “The swing is the only thing that is left and I am just waiting for someone to come and make it disappear. It would not coma as a surprise to me if people thought that it was dangerous. I saw some little kid playing on the swing the other day and I thought it was quite amicable. But I still think that it hasn’t really sunk in yet. Outsiders do not necessarily connect the sight of some swing to the fact that there used to be a house there. It is a beautiful memoir and perhaps it could be cast in bronze, if it would disappear that is.”
