Wholesale Spring

The third entry in author Karl Ove Knausgaard's series of seasonal autobiographies, in Spring, Knausgaard continues his letters to his now newborn daughter, describing in detail the world he is welcoming her into. But he must now also tell his daughter the horrifying story of what happened while her mother was pregnant with her, and explain why he now attends appointments with child services. Diving deeply into the suspense and drama of this story, Knausgaard draws out the events of one day with an uncanny ability to heighten the emotional and psychological resonance of a single, life-changing moment. (This title may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
