#KWIBlog: In part 3 of our "More or Less" series, literary scholar Ricarda Menn writes about Serial Life Narratives, taking a closer look at Karl Ove #Knausgaard and Maggie Nelson. She discusses different implications of writing "more and more" - of the same? #autofiction #autobiography

That book group starting the first #knausgaard book...they don't realise it's not all plain sailing like that one. All that happens in the first volume is that he takes 400 pages to boil an egg and it's all very readable. By volume six the struggle is very much yours, not his.

From Karl Ove #Knausgaard's Winter

Wow #Knausgaard's The Morning Star coming to life? Is he the new Nostradamus?? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-europe-63697209

How does my #bookstore not have any #Knausgaard or #Ernaux? This is not right.

@clauselholm Cheers for #Knausgaard and Scandinavian lit! (I heard Knausgaard speak at the Chicago Humanities Festival a few years ago, and he was even better than I'd expected.)

I'm from #Denmark and I can't #vote in the US.

Wait...am I the first person to post about #Knausgaard on Mastodon? 🤔
