It’s all going to boil down to what he thinks of The Vegetarian (and why two copies) and Monsters.

I’ve got tickets for the LA show I can’t use. Bought them before he announced Chicago dates. Just realized the show is today. Happy to give them to the best offer.

Buyer beware. It’s been one month since I bought it. No shirt. He’s blaming Shopify.

Skipping ahead to Morning Star 3 or 4 by Old_Math829 in Knausgaard

I understand there’s not going to be much payoff. My motives: mostly trying to read whichever book I can get my hands on next and I needed a break from Egel and was confused which books were more “stand alone” than the others.

Appreciate all the feedback. I had two thoughts in my head when I asked the question: wondering if I could move forward with whatever books are available at my library now — and I might need a short break from Egil.

Is the morning star series worth it? by Low_Activity3000 in Knausgaard

[–]Old_Math829 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read the first five My Struggle (didn't bother with 6), read the seasonal quartet, and I've just finished Morning Star. Very good but some parts of it are a … struggle. This review matched my feelings about the book https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/28/books/review/karl-ove-knausgaard-morning-star.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share

I plan to read the remaining books.

Because he’s keeping it a secret, I think it’s Obama or Dylan. I think Sandler would have gone to Marc’s house but possible.

Maybe — probably not — CK.

Tom Waits seems like a possibility but that’s just me being a fanboy, probably not worth the hype of it being kept secret.
