As far as I know this is just an autobiography of a guy. I think he published a novel in Norwegian before this but this is just a book about an unremarkable life.
I really loved the sense of interiority of this book. The events described are often utterly banal, and often I sat back thinking ‘errrr this is just a guy blog posting,’ but the way it’s written, in an almost stream of consciousness style, just following the thoughts of a man, following no particular narrative, gives a real furnished feeling of an inside world. The way I’m interested in my own dull life, I was interested in this book.
