‘I knew I was doing something I shouldn’t’: Karl Ove Knausgård on the fallout from My Struggle and the dark side of ambition The Norwegian author on his autofictional epic, moving to London, and the psychopath at the heart of his new novel

I interviewed Karl Ove Knausgård for @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/books/2025/n...

Re the semi-secret gig they did on Wednesday: I know there were a lot of false starts etc but (Paul can correct me if I'm wrong) the crowd seemed very low energy. With reformed indie bands the problem I usually have is drunken blokes losing the run of themselves

Hope the audience was more lively than the NS crowd seemed to be in the videos I saw!
