my struggle by karl ove knausgaard will stand as the most important literary work of the 21st century. a proustian masterpiece that is closer to an examination of the self that an account of a life, the text tackles the quotidian, ephemeral, and indefectible with equal candor and an unnerving honesty akin to that of gazing at an asymmetrical face. the press the novel has heretofore received is as well deserved as it is misinformed; the work is an experience beyond which commentary could faithfully relay. three volumes are published in english thus far. if you have any interest in literature or introspection, this book is absolutely necessary. -- source link
