A Death In The Family
Paperback Edition: 1
In this utterly remarkable novel Karl Ove Knausgaard writes with painful honesty 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.

This title is a profoundly serious, gripping and hugely readable work written as if the author's very life were at stake.
