Nýhil

Nýhil was an Icelandic avante-garde small press and association of young writers, founded around 2002-2004 by Eiríkur Örn Norðdahl and Haukur Már Helgason, followed shortly by Grímur Hákonarson, and ceasing operation around 2011. The group's 'most active years were between 2004 and 2009'. The group was noted for its social criticism and international outlook, publishing over 50 volumes, and bringing over 40 writers from abroad to its poetry festivals. For a period beginning in spring 2006 the group ran a poetry bookshop in the premises of Bad Taste Records on Laugavegur.

The group also ran an international poetry festival, whose seventh iteration took place in the Norræna húsið in autumn 2010.

The collective drew to a close as its main members emerged into the Icelandic literary mainstream. Prominent Icelandic authors who have published extensively with Nýhil include Eiríkur Örn Norðdahl, Steinar Bragi, and Óttar M. Norðfjörð.
