Jim Nail asked this question about My Struggle: Book Two:
Does anybody really know why Karl Ove Knausgaard gave his book(s) the same title as Hitler's infamous volume? I just started Volume 2 and really digging it, but every now and then he throws in something about some people from another culture looking oddly out of place in the crowd, and it makes me nervous. His work seems much more personal than political, and these references would probably otherwise go unnoticed.
