Winter
Descriere
It is strange that you exist, but you don’t know anything about what the world looks like. It’s strange that there is a first time to see the sky, a first time to see the sun, a first time to feel the air against one’s skin. It’s strange that there is a first time to see a face, a tree, a lamp, pyjamas, a shoe. In my life that almost never happens anymore. But soon it will. In just a few months, I will see you for the first time.
The birth of Karl Ove Knausgaard’s youngest daughter draws near. Prompted to see the world anew, he writes short pieces on everything from winter boots to the brain, describing to her the wonders of life.
Winter is the second volume of the Seasons quartet, following on in time from Autumn and illustrated with exquisite watercolours by Swedish artist Lars Lerin.
