A review by helgamharb
The Morning Star by Karl Ove Knausgård

4.0

I am here, at this moment in time. It's enough.

A very large star suddenly appears in the Norwegian sky. Where did it come from? What is it exactly? Why did it appear out of nowhere?

The Morning Star is not one, but a collection of everyday life stories of a few ordinary people; people seemingly insignificant, but each with their own problems; each with their own demons, disappointments, beliefs, struggles and interpretations of the meaning of life.

The characters in the book may never meet; they may not even be aware of the others' existence.
They have only one thing in common…the appearance of the mysterious star.
