Book

Min kamp 1 (2009)

Solitude, cleaning the house and relationships. No doubt periods pass that make you wonder where time has escaped to but collectively that time has felt somehow worthy. Majority of what is put forward feels generally relatable to most and I'm sure the next person along would draw out different se...

My Struggle: Book Two: A Man in Love (2009)

I loved this a little less than Book 1, perhaps Knausgaard's writing is less of a revelation/I'm getting used to it. Either that or I identify less strongly with the themes of parenthood in this book....Some people love the sections with Geir, I found them a little pedantic.Still, I did read it l...

Min kamp 2 (2009)

Though somewhat about metaphysics, there's not really any interesting or original insights here. Though a memoir, there's few memorable incidents. The writing is decent but also a bit flat--no beautiful language here, no great dialogue. This is certainly not a plot-driven novel: It's a tour throu...

A Man in Love (2009)

The thought police aren't very happy with Karl Ove these days and that's all the more reason to read him! I enjoyed book two much more than book one as he takes aim on Swedish political correctness and dares to share his true feelings on the shame of being a house-husband. His hilarious stories...

Lieben (2009)

If anything i enjoyed this more than the first volume of My Struggle. Although again I think I found the book to be better in the first 300 pages. Maybe it's just me but I do struggle a bit to stay with a book that is over 500 pages long. In the first part of the book I admired the way that secti...

My Struggle Volume 2 (2000)

As much as I enjoyed (perhaps the wrong word for a text that repeatedly punched me in the gut) Volume I of My Struggle, the second book hit me even harder. Where the first book was obsessed with memory, this, despite being a nested series of flashbacks, is very much in the present. Where the firs...

Zoon (2008)

I had some reservations about the first two volumes of My Struggle but the third one leaves no place for doubts. It is amazing.I guess, the difference between the novels of the cycle has something to do with memories. One writes about childhood in a more romantic key than about the present. The m...

My Struggle, Book 1 (2009)

Yeah. You should read it, too. Very intimate story about complicated relations between father and son. Highly recommend.

Vader (2009)

Couldn't put it down. I'm torn between 4 and 5 but I'm going to go with 4.

My Struggle: Book 3

It belonged to the Arendal Steamship Company and was, like all its buses, painted in two-tone-light and dark-brown livery. It drove over a bridge, along a bay, signaled right, and drew to a halt. The door opened and out stepped a little family. The father, a tall, slim man in a white shirt and li...
