...stylish. Cloudlike beds, deep baths and inspiring views are standard in each room, but my favorite is 23: a clawfoot bathtub lies just an arm's stretch from the bed, perfectly positioned for Snaefells to rise up from behind your wet toes. In the restaurant, 22-year-old chef Andri Johannsson cooks with a Michelin flair. Lobster bisque infused with calvados, honey-roasted catfish, and lamb that quite literally melts in your mouth are served with organic vegetables grown in the hotel garden and wild herbs picked in local lava fields. On weekends, Reyjkavik's hip set descend to drink...

...took nine games, but Yale finished one the win column for the first time all year on Saturday, downing Princeton, 28-21 Yale's Jeff Bassette scored three touchdowns the last with just 6:05 to play to spark the Eli win in Princeton.

This conflict moves the play, particularly when every joint of Guckenheimer's structure is riveted by the performance of Douglas Hughes. When Hughes's fiery, adolescent Andri is forced into the dilemma of conformity or rebellion, the strain grinds him into a slow, crumpling burn; rubbing palms on trousers as if to ease the searing; stretching fingers behind his back to find air he's not sure he's entitled to. A tight stickfigure of nervousness, he moves like he's in an invisible bag. So his courage lashes out like electricity, for he can never breathe enough to show...

...very difficult, sophisticated play--a stripped and probably lost-in-translation parable--ambition is commendable. The one-dimensional portrayal of the townspeople may only accentuate a repetitiveness built into the play itself. Perhaps it is only a small fault that the society that Andri can't pin down as either antagonistic or welcoming seems to know the answer too soon...
