A Goodreads user asked this question about My Struggle, Book 1:
I find it shocking that more people haven't commented on the title. I have searched through articles, and while they mention the obvious connection to Hitler, none of them ask about it in detail. WHY would he call it that, and what point is he trying to make? I can't bring myself to read the book, brilliant though it may be, because the title is too horrifying for me to move past.

All in all , my struggle is a good title for a book and it is just a shame it is tide to the evil doings of a dictator. (less)
