Besprechung
Diverse and delightful... These sharp little essays capture the wonder of things with photographic immediacy... This is an inspiring, surprising collection The Times

Langtext

The Sunday Times bestseller from literary phenomenon Karl Ove Knausgaard, a love letter about the world written by a father to his unborn daughter.

'Inspiring, surprising... Autumn will warm and enlighten anyone who opens their eyes to it' The Times

Autumn begins with a letter Karl Ove Knausgaard writes to his unborn daughter. He adds one short piece each day, describing the material and natural world - from twilight to the migration of birds, from Van Gogh to forgiveness - with the precision and mesmerising intensity that have become his trademark.

With artwork by Vanessa Baird

'This book is full of wonders... The world feels repainted' New York Times

Knausgaard has been awarded the Norwegian Critics Prize for Literature, the Brage Prize and the Jerusalem Prize. His work, which also includes The Morning Star, Out of the World, A Time for Everything and the Seasons Quartet, is published in thirty-five languages.
