The second book in a trilogy chronicling the troubled childhood of international sensation Jón Gnarr, The Pirate revisits his teenage years with sincere compassion and great humor: bullied relentlessly, Jón receives rebellious inner strength through the Sex Pistols and Prince Kropotkin—punk rock and anarchy offer the promise of a better and more exciting life.
Jón Gnarr, the most famous comedic actor in Iceland, founded the Best Party and served as mayor of Reykjavik 2010-2014. Rumors say he will run for President of Iceland in 2016.
