T Singer by Dag Solstad

5.0

He hadn't managed to decide what he would be, and he'd displayed a certain joy in this indecisiveness of his. Indecisive both in appearance and when it came to creating a future. Not until he turned thirty-one did he feel it was time to make a decision. That was when he enrolled in the Oslo College of Library Science of all things. The time of his youth was irrevocably over, and with each day Singer distanced himself more and more from his own attitude as a young man, and as each day passed he was another day older; he'd even noticed when he looked at his own face in the mirror that a thin streak of gray had shown up in his beard, and so it was time to make some sort of decision, and he applied to library school, where he was admitted based on gender quotas.
