Karl Ove Knausgaard: The School of Night, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Night and blood were unchanged, night and blood had been with us always

In the summer of 1985, Kristian Hadeland leaves his life in Norway behind and moves to London to study photography. Kristian is twenty years old, ruthless and ambitious. He is determined to make his mark, whatever the cost to those around him. A chance meeting with Hans, a Dutch artist obsessed with technology, and Vivian, who is staging Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus, will open up new possibilities for Kristian, as he mercilessly pursues his career to the heights of success.

Electrifying, thrilling and confronting, The School of Night is a novel about how art is created and about how human life is destroyed. It is the story of one terrible man's rise and fall, and the forces that surround us all, both the light and the dark.
