Please join The Royal Norwegian Consulate General, Archipelago Books, and the Bay and Paul Foundations for a conversation between Karl O. Knausgaard and Jocelyn Lieu.
Karl O. Knausgaard was born in Norway in 1968 and made his debut with the novel Out of This World (Ute av verden). A Time for Everything is his second novel and was nominated for the Nordic Council Prize. It is his first to be translated into English.
**Note from Jocelyn: "Knausgaard's only book now translated into English, A Time for Everything, is intoxicating in that it is a deconstructive high-wire act that also manages to pull off some gripping storytelling (based on the Cain and Abel and Noah stories, and on the life of the fictional theologian Antinous Bellori)."
