The end

the long version

"The sprawling, intimate, and spectacularly unorthodox literary autobiography that unleashed a media frenzy upon its release in Norway, became a global publishing sensation, and sold millions of copies worldwide, now reaches its climactic conclusion. In this poignant and characteristically substantial finale, Karl Ove, in his inimitable style, delves once again into his deepest thoughts and most revealing memories, for the first time reflecting on the impact publishing My Struggle has had on his personal life and career. His subject expands from himself to the books, ideas, and historical figures that have shaped him, culminating in an impassioned statement of his artistic purpose. The first global literary phenomenon of the twenty-first century, which has been published in more than twenty-two languages, is now, finally, available in its entirety in English. Translated from the Norwegian by superstar literary translators Don Bartlett and Martin Aitken."--
