In Conversation with Karl Ove Knausgård - Writers Unlimited - Winternachten festival Den Haag 2016

Karl Ove Knausgård (Norway, 1968) is a writer, translator and literary "rock star". His autobiographical novel cycle My Struggle (2009-2011) is a worldwide hit. In six hefty parts, Knausgård tells us about his life and his relationship with parents and friends. He doesn't spare his friends and family. The series was published in Dutch as Father (2012), Love (2012), Son (2013), Night (2013), Writer (2014) and Woman (2015). Gripped by Knausgård's autobiographical confessions, many fans and critics eagerly anticipated Woman. My Struggle is a declaration of love to the phenomenal ordinariness of life, but has also been described as "the battle between a bastard and a loving person, both named Karl Ove Knausgård". Stine Jensen interviews Knausgård about memory, the explanation for his worldwide success, and the question of what in the world he can still write after My Struggle. In English

I love him, love his calm voice...

Another KO for Karl Ove: Charisma and authenticity so uniquely combined.

So wonderful to listen to such an eloquent man.

The most interesting celeb artist I have ever heard in interview

[@jonfischer2203]

Those gaps between the pictures seemed so agonizingly long and awkward, ha. Great interview, nonetheless!

[@joliebunny88]

What an awkward thing to have someone like Knausgaard comment on his own life in pictures. Other than that it was an interesting interview.
