Hello /lit/. I've just begun to study Old Norse, and I would like to read the literature (sagas, poetry, etc) in the original. There are plenty of online sources, but I would prefer reading a real, print copy. Anyone know where to find Old Norse literature in the original language/bilingual? And any recommendations for great Old Norse lit?

Also, Scandinavian lit general.

Would you prefer Old Icelandic? I see nothing cringey about studying archaic languages.

They're called memes, friend. We meme. That's what we do.

*fails to address any point you made*

Can't handle a meme? Well, kid, maybe this place is not for you. It takes a special intellect to post a proper meme and to recognize when you've been memed.

*looks at you nonchalantly*

kid, you need a wicked sense of humor to make it here. We're nihilists

Thanks, would still prefer print copy, but I've been unable to find any.

I know it's a meme you dip, but I would obviously prefer an actual answer than a shitpost.

Orthographically, Old Icelandic is nearly identical to its modern counterpart, so yeah I probably could find them in Iceland. However, for obvious reasons, I am not travelling to Iceland just to get some books.
