"It’s one thing to be banal, stupid, and idiotic on the inside. It’s another to have it captured in writing." — Knausgaard, the Paris Review
About this Event

P&T Knitwear is pleased to welcome internationally bestselling author Karl Ove Knausgaard for a six-hour long discussion of his life and work.

Karl Ove will be joined in coversation by himself, Karl Ove Knausgaard. We are serious about this, it is not a joke: he will be there in one chair, while at the same time in the chair opposite himself. His publicist has reassured us this is all very real.

After the conversation, both Karl Oves, or just one, if you prefer, will sign copies of his books.



  • This is a ticketed in-store event with limited amphitheater-style seating. Doors will be firmly locked behind you at 12:00pm.
  • Cost of the general admission ticket is worth it, trust us.
  • The talk will be followed by a book signing. Books signed at P&T Knitwear events must be purchased from P&T Knitwear. Please specify which Karl Ove you would like to autograph your book(s).
  • Please understand this is most certainly not a joke.
