2008 Rökkurró, Dagur þrjú, Það kólnar í kvöld...
En áfram tóri ég og dagana tel

Guð sagði: „Verði ljós!“ Og það varð ljós. Guð sá, að ljósið var gott, og Guð greindi ljósið frá myrkrinu. Og Guð kallaði ljósið dag, en myrkrið kallaði hann nótt. Það varð kveld og það varð morgunn, hinn fyrsti dagur.

And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness. God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.

Og Guð leit allt, sem hann hafði gjört, og sjá, það var harla gott. Það varð kveld og það varð morgunn, hinn sjötti dagur.

Það getur vel verið, að þessi gráa og látlausa hversdagssaga drukkni í jólabókaflóðinu í ár.

1936, Árni Hallgrímsson, “Bækur [Books]”, in Árni Hallgrímsson, editor, Iðunn, volume XIX, numbers 3–4, Reykjavík, page 386:

It may well be that this gray and unassuming everyday story will drown in this year’s Christmas book flood.

Í hinu mikla jólabókaflóði er lítið og laglegt hefti með snotri mynd framan á, sem heitir: „Jeg skal segja þjer“

1943 December 21, “Dagbók [Diary/Journal]”, in Morgunblaðið, volume 30, number 289, Reykjavík, page 10:

In the great Christmas book flood there is a small and pretty booklet with a pretty picture on the cover, entitled: “I shall tell you”

Útlit er fyrir að jólabókaflóðið verði af svipaðri stærðargráðu í ár og í fyrra. Gert er ráð fyrir að hátt í fjögur hundruð titlar verði gefnir út.

1989 September 7, “Ástarsögur hverfa af jólabókamarkaði [Love stories disappear from Christmas book market]”, in Tíminn, volume 73, number 176, Reykjavík, page 1:

It looks like the Christmas book flood will be of a similar magnitude as last year. It is expected that close to four hundred titles will be published.

The “Christmas book flood”; the multitude of books (especially newly published books) available in shops in the weeks before Christmas in Iceland, where most new books are published at this time of year.
