A Man In Love: My Struggle Book 2

“It`s unbelievable. I just read 200 pages of it and I need the next volume like crack. It`s completely blown my mind” Zadie SmithShortlisted for the Independent Foreign Fiction Prize 2014. This is a book about leaving your wife and everything you know. It is about fresh starts, about love, about friendship. It is also about the earth-shattering experience of becoming a father, the mundane struggles of family life, ridiculously unsuccessful holidays, humiliating antenatal music classes, fights with quarrelsome neighbours, the emotional strains of children`s` birthday parties and pushing a pram around Stockholm when all you really want to do is write. This is a book about one man`s life but, somehow, about everyone else`s too. `A Man in Love`, the second book of six in the `My Struggle` cycle, sees Knausgaard write of tempestuous relationships, the trials of parenthood and an urge to create great art. His singular insight and exhilarating honesty must be read to be believed.
