Anyone started this yet? I'm really liking the way Knausgaard is foreshadowing doom and death in every chapter. I also like the slight sci-fi/religious feel the book has. Is this new star really coinciding with some strange crossover between the land of the living and the land of the dead? Knausgaard's done a good job of reinforcing this theme with the book Arne and Egil discuss in the first chapter and how that theme keeps showing in all the rest. I'm also liking the little connections you can make between each section and how the characters are overlapping.

All in all it's classic Knausgaard. It feels like he took the explorations about death in My Struggle Book One and turned into a full-blown novel. I'm loving it and fans of My Struggle will love it too, I think.

I've stopped reading your post after the first sentence because it got me hooked and now I want to read the book and I don't want to spoil it.
