Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: None, As Issued. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 345 pages. Published in 2023. The author's collection of interviews. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with the regular trade Softcover Edition. Published in a small and limited print run of 500 copi…es as a hardcover original by a University Press as part of the now-legendary "Literary Conversations" Series. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents, in the most collectible format possible, "Conversations With Karl Ove Knausgaard". A representative - and dazzling - selection of interviews conducted by various writers, journalists, and scholars with the author. Gives a rich, complex, and lively overview of both the life and mind of one of contemporary literature's most exciting and important writers. Presented in chronological order, the interviews cumulatively amount to an absorbing account of one of the greatest literary journeys of our time, which is the explicit intention of the publisher with each writer who is included in the Series. "Twenty-two interviews, each conducted during the ten-year span in which Knausgaard's literary prowess gained worldwide recognition. Knausgaard is both a daring writer and a daring interviewee. He grounds his observations in the ordinary aspects of the world around him which, he insists, is the same world in front of most of his readers. He regards his appearances in newspapers, magazines, and literary festivals as a performance, where he plays himself. While that role may differ from his inner life, it is consistent with the role he plays in his autobiographical novels. Knausgaard discusses his work, aspects of his personal life, and his writing routines and practices in marvelous detail. Remarkable for his candor and directness, Knausgaard delivers the same variety and number of surprises in these interviews as he does in his most thrilling books" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Karl Ove Knausgaard collectors. This title is a great collection. This is one of very few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. It is one of the most beautiful copies we have ever seen. Please note: Copies available online are, for the most part, P-O-D or the Softcover Edition, both of which have NO collectible value. A scarce copy thus. One of the greatest writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO KARL OVE KNAUSGAARD "INADVERTENT" AND "IN THE LAND OF CYCLOPS" TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 1496847695. no.
