Publisher's Summary

My Struggle introduces American listeners 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 intense and irresistible.

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.

Unbelievable reading

I have just finished listening to the 6 Knausgaard novels. I’m a bit numb, as I’ve been listening to them on and off for 4 years, and now it’s over. I got tired of the series after book 3, went off and read/listened to some more, including Knausgaard’s ‘Morning Star’, but then came back, wondered away again and then returned. The 6th is a towering achievement, the scale of which is hard to comprehend, but the structure and duration are essential to its effect, which could also be said for the series overall. I read one of the six, but have mostly listened as Eduardo Ballerini delivers a monumental performance here. Is there an audiobook oscar? I can’t wait to read other Knausgaards and listen to other Ballerinis. For the time being, these books still burn bright in my heart, and I’m sure I will return to these incredible recordings.
