You will come to see it in your own way, you will experience things for yourself and live a life of your own, so of course it is primarily for my own sake that I am doing this: showing you the world, little one, makes my life worth living.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAutumn\u003c\/i\u003e begins with a letter Karl Ove Knausgaard writes to his unborn daughter, showing her what to expect of the world. He writes one short piece per day, describing the material and natural world with the precision and mesmerising intensity that have become his trademark. He describes with acute sensitivity daily life with his wife and children in rural Sweden, drawing upon memories of his own childhood to give an inimitably tender perspective on the precious and unique bond between parent and child. The sun, wasps, jellyfish, eyes, lice--the stuff of everyday life is the fodder for his art. Nothing is too small or too vast to escape his attention. This beautifully illustrated book is a personal encyclopaedia on everything from chewing gum to the stars. Through close observation of the objects and phenomena around him, Knausgaard shows us how vast, unknowable and wondrous the world is.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKarl Ove Knausgaard\u003c\/b\u003e's first novel, \u003ci\u003eOut of the World\u003c\/i\u003e, was the first ever debut novel to win the Norwegian Critics' Prize and his second, \u003ci\u003eA Time for Everything\u003c\/i\u003e, was widely acclaimed.
