    I love this man as an author. I feel as a result of reading My Struggle (the five volumes currently translated into English) that i know him as well as anyone i have ever met. I hunger for the next volume

      Yes, I feel that way after reading even the first book. I've gotten the first five tomes to read

    So amazed at the fact that he mentioned David Foster Wallace who happens to be my favourite author of all times.

    It's strange how I started reading "The Struggle" at the same time I was focusing on iron and wine albums. This is awesome.

    Would have been nice if they put the names of the Norwegian writers he is saying. I can't figure out a spelling based on his pronunciations.

      I'd feel rather uncomfortable being interviewed, as a European writer, in one of the biggest and most important cultural cities of the world. Also after having another coffee and sitting on such a small stool would drive me even more nervous lol

    Not one free book on TH-cam; it acts as a starter and gets people to look for more, but NO, TH-cam has cut down and fewer books/audibooks are being sought out/bought.
