My Struggle, Book One - Thryft
My Struggle, Book One - Thryft

Unflinching autobiography that is addictively readable.

My Struggle, Book One is for those who are looking for an intensively introspective autobiography that delves into the poignant moments of life while showcasing originality in writing. The book should be read by those who enjoy autobiographies that blend into contemporary literature. The author, Karl Ove Knausgaard, takes a bold approach towards discussing deep issues such as death, love, fear, and art. Readers are bound to find themselves compelled to read on as Knausgaard brings out his life with raw honesty.

Description

My Struggle: Book One introduces American readers to the audacious, addictive, and profoundly surprising international literary sensation that is the provocative and brilliant six-volume autobiographical novel by Karl Ove Knausgaard. It has already been anointed a Proustian masterpiece and is the rare work of dazzling literary originality that is intensely, irresistibly readable. Unafraid of the big issues—death, love, art, fear—and yet committed to the intimate details of life as it is lived, My Struggle is an essential work of contemporary literature.
