    Karl Ove Knasgaard's writing is so impressive, so inspiring and fabulous in all its dimensions. Also, it is for me really a great pleasure to listen him speaking about his life, his family and his books.
    He seems so incredibly close, humble and so human. That is so rare in a great writer.

    I love that O'Hagan is challenging instead of fawning. Great interview.

    The way in which he answers the last question plays out like a beautiful scene in a movie.

      The substance of Knausgaard's answer is brilliant, too.

    This is by far the best interview with Knausgård I have seen so far. Thanks for asking some challenging questions (Yes I know I'm 9 years late)

    I didn't want to hear an interview or read much about him till I'd finished Book 6 but I'm really glad I listened to this. He has valuable things to say about himself, other people and those who write.

    I feel like I know Karl Ove in an intimate way, I know more about him than I do my own family, as he lays himself bare in a self sabotaging way where you hear his most private thoughts. Thoughts which no person I have ever known would admit to. Thoughts which I have often myself wondered if I am normal for thinking. Readers who approach him talk of their own struggles, he is cathartic to us!! Maybe in his deep conscious he feels like he has purified himself for God, he has confessed to world.

      Reading Min Kamp made me think about art and it's pragmatic, therapeutic role for the contemporary man. The way I see it, it's essence is now more purposeful than ever. Knausgaard's struggle is his finite work - you can hold it in your hands. It's a treatise on literature and art in general. Gone are the days when paintings, music, literature were made for religious purposes, now they're mostly fixed on what's common for everyone, raising our awareness of what's more important in life. There is no romantic ideal anymore, it's just humanism in a time when you feel stuck in your day-to-day monotony.

    So interesting! And I love how he gestures with his hands when he speaks, as if his hands speak a whole language on their own.

    "How to feel free of everything" it is almost impossible. But Karl Owe says, he did.

    @lynnharper4422 3 роки тому

    He is in fact telling his own story, not his fathers or anyone else's, it's always from his own point of view. Interesting Andrew O'Hagan mentioning other authors but he should name them completely, I had to keep going back to hear what he was saying. These are important books, I'm in the midst of Book 6 and glad I've read them.

    What's the name of the poet he mentioned at 20.18? I couldn't get it..

    • @magmelb
      @magmelb 8 років тому +3

      +aniccadance13 It's Olav H. Hauge, a great poet, and like Knausgaard says some of his work is translated to English. Couldn't tell you if the translated poems are any good though, as I've only read him in Norwegian.

    • @aniccadance13
      @aniccadance13 8 років тому +2

      +magmelb Thank you very much ❤️I'll search for translation, if Karl says he's good I believe as he himself is amazing..

  • @lynnharper4422
    @lynnharper4422 3 роки тому

    Looking forward to getting to the political parts of Book 6 to see what he has to say. His book on Munch was very interesting but /and also about him. All authors are somehow embedded in what they write but Karl One Knausgaard is never trying to hide (it seems to me).

    As said at the close-illuminating. His statement about the motif of faces appearing, that it was pure coincidence and that there is no such thing as coincidence.

    Is it just his bad reading, or the bad english translation or just the demand to get invested in this totally uninteresting text that makes me not interested in Knausagard?
