Book excerpt: In October 2008, Iceland went from being one of the wealthiest countries in the world to being one of the poorest, within the space of about two weeks. During those sensational few days, regular citizens stood by helplessly and watched as Iceland's three large commercial banks folded and Iceland's currency, the krona, plummeted in value, eventually becoming worthless outside of Iceland. "Living Inside the Meltdown" is the first published collection of interviews with ordinary people about their experiences of Iceland's economic meltdown. "If you take anything away from this review, let it be this: You must read this book. You will be able to share in the common experience of these people's stories. The book isn't a collection of rants, nor is it an all out sob-fest, but rather gives accounts on the same topic, the collapse, each with its own story and insight." - Iceland Review.
