A Death in the Family - Karl Ove Knausgaard New Jersey

New Jersey

sometimes - but more often

He cheats on his wife avidly

Master of the nonchalant bow

and reality melts into nightmare

A Death in the Family - Karl Ove Knausgaard New JerseyKarl Ove Knausgaard writes about his life with painful honesty. He writes about his childhood and teenage years, his infatuation with rock music, his relationship with his loving yet almost invisible mother and his distant and unpredictable father, and his bewilderment and grief on his father's death. When Karl Ove becomes a father himself, he must balance the demands of caring for a young family with his determination to write great literature.
