Ragnar Jónasson, who works as a lawyer and also writes books, has started a new role as a special adviser at the law firm LOGOS. The move places him at one of Iceland's best-known firms while he continues his writing on the side. He has spent years combining the two professions, and the balance between them has become part of his public image. His novels have found readers well beyond Iceland, keeping his name in circulation in two very different circles. Neither Jónasson nor LOGOS has detailed what his day-to-day duties will involve. The hire still stands out, because few people move between legal practice and publishing so visibly.
