The Saga of Grettir the Strong is an Icelandic saga that tells the story of Grettir, a legendary hero who lived in Iceland during the 11th century. The saga begins with the birth of Grettir and follows his life as he becomes a skilled warrior and adventurer.

Despite his strength and courage, Grettir's life is plagued by a curse that brings him bad luck and misfortune. The saga is full of action, adventure, and drama, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of medieval Iceland. The translation by G. H. Hight captures the beauty and power of the original Icelandic text, making this classic work accessible to modern readers.Grettir went out with his companions to visit them. On their meeting Grettir found Bjorn amongst the company and said: It is well that we meet here, for now we can continue our former quarrel.
