Apart from the grueling struggles he went through, ( notably the struggle of finding himself ), Knausgård has worked as a consultant on a new Norwegian translation of the Bible. Surprisingly, unlike his own stories, the Bible's chapters were already written, any attempt to add some rebel struggle being practically impossible - a fact which generated, as expected , a new struggle.

Finished the first part, the last struggle. Le lion est mort ce soir. Aucune chance de résurrection.

" I do not want anyone to get close to me, I do not want anyone to see me, and this is the way things have developed : no one gets close and no one sees me ".

The biggest struggle is confronting reality, in the end. We're not characters in a book, we are real. Once one perceived this, struggles are gone. Kind of Peter Pan vs Stockdale Paradox. A matter of balance, in a healing touch of silence.

Today I stopped by the Frog & British Library, located near to Bibliothèque François Mitterrand. At the entrance, on the door, an inviting announcement : " We ♡ Beer ".
Indeed, inside, the books were bottled up, emanating a deeply thoughtful miasma. Time to read, folks.

Dontcha you just hate it when you have just written a review, and at the moment of launching it on air you're summoned to log in, and your pitiful review goes to no man's land ? I don't know the elephants where they go, when they go, neither do the reviews.
I must commend you on your impeccable timing, truly, it takes a special kind of genius to interrupt a user at the precise moment of their creative zenith.

I remember that in my highschool years, I often used to make a lot of digressions in the comments on books, a habit that still haunts me nowadays. The teacher told me once - " Interesting, Théo, but next time, try to tell us something about the book.
" I'm afraid the author would be dissapointed, monsieur ", I said.
" The author is very dead, Théo, t'inquiète pas " .
" Authors never die, m-sieur."

Unlike Meursault, Knausgård knows exactly the day of his father death. But who was the stranger, in their relationship ?

In the end, it was the text that had shaped him, and his struggle with the Bible taught him something essential - that the act of writing, of wrestling with words and ideas was itself a form of worship.
