A family moves to a new house in Sørland. It's the 1970s and the future is open. But at some point that future happens, and closes. The third book in the MY STRUGGLE cycle is set in a world where children and adults live parallel lives. With insight and honesty, Knausgaard writes of a child's growing self-awareness, of how the past affects the present, and of the desire for other ways of living.
