"My Struggle: Book Four is an elegiac kind of comic novel, and it is pure Karl Ove Knausgaard. This is to say, it comprises intimate descriptions of daily life, descriptions that build to something improbably greater than the sum of their parts." -- Dwight Garner in The New York Times "The sheer accumulation of minutiae becomes hypnotic. Many times I've thought to myself: It's getting late, I'll stop reading now. But an hour on, I'm still turning the pages. My Struggle is addictive, whether the narrator is frying onions, engaging in drinking bouts that end in a fetal position on the bathroom floor, or meditating on evil." -- The Wall Street Journal "Knausgaard is not a 'difficult' writer like Proust, Joyce or David Foster Wallace. He's pointedly unliterary. Anyone can understand what he's writing. And, paradoxically enough, his honest, obsessive self-absorption makes his life feel universal. As I was reading, every single subject that came up in my daily living -- parents, politics, education, Italian food, trees, even David Byrne -- reminded me of something in Knausgaard. His work makes you realize that each and every one of our lives contains rich enough material for a long, daunting book called My Struggle." -- John Powers, Fresh Air "Knausgaard's brooding Scandinavian obsessiveness has a way of getting under a reader's skin, not because his life is so exciting and eventful -- it isn't -- but because it's so familiar. He writes a clear prose that transforms ordinary events, detailing the span of his life with such directness that everything seems to be happening in real time." -- Washington Post "I just finished the newest volume of My Struggle, the fourth of six, and it was marvelous, transporting. The whole sequence is maddening at times, yes, but also, beyond any question, something special and important... He does recapture the world, somehow; that's the thing, and it gives these strange, boring, hypnotic, luminous books almost a religious feeling, something like immanence. It's astonishing. If you haven't already, read them now." -- Charles Finch, Chicago Tribune "Book Four is the swiftest, most neatly arced of the books thus far... Not since Jack Kerouac's "Big Sur" has a novelist depicted the terrors and highs of oblivion so well." -- John Freeman, The Boston Globe"My Struggle is candid and compulsively readable, with moments of searing insight and bold shifts through narrative time. Its scope is both ambitious and modest; its range aggressive and tender." -- VICE
"Knausgaard perfectly captures the heady mixture of elation and confusion to be found in late adolescence... My Struggle remains addictive, intensely funny and intensely serious. Like the young man here portrayed, it is 'full to the brim with energy and life'." -- The Times Literary Supplement "Knausgaard is an advocate for writing the unsayable, for plumbing the deepest recesses of human consciousness and experience. As such, he's relentless in airing his most honest, and therefore often least admirable, self. I think it's precisely this that makes My Struggle such a generous, dealienating and necessary endeavor." -- Readings (Australia)"Knausgaard's work is an ongoing fight against impermanence... the details accrete to make a thrilling and momentous record of one person's passage through time." -- Catherine Holmes, The Post and Courier
"Who are the artistic geniuses of today?... I've been thinking about this lately -- who might last and why -- moved by immersion in two wildly differing bodies of work. The first is the much-discussed six-volume magnum opus 'My Struggle, ' in which the Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgaard slices the mundane details of his life the way Paul Sorvino sliced garlic in 'Goodfellas' -- into translucent rounds of prose that melt in your head rather than your mouth... Will people read Knausgaard in 100 years the way they read Proust, a much more lyrical, consciously artful literary narcissist? Impossible to say, but I'd bet on yes; the paradox of 'My Struggle' is that the mundane details are what make it timeless. The sequence late in volume 1, in which the author cleans out his dead alcoholic father's house, goes on for dozens of pages, way too long, yet in its length and fanatically recorded specifics it illuminates all the coming to terms a child can have with a parent. If people are willing to listen, I think the books may continue to speak." -- The Boston Globe„Über diesen Titel“ kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
