It’s really difficult to review this book, let alone give a somewhat objective recommendation.
Even though the German version has almost 900 pages, I rushed through them relatively quickly. Knausgård is really readable, even when there’s longer philosophical passages. I was sceptical about the supernatural aspect of the story, but to me it felt fitting. That being said though, I can see people not liking this idea.
