[An] enormously compelling book…
The range of subjects
The Wolves of Eternity
explores is fascinating
Casts an existential spell…
captivating
… Big themes — the cosmos, death and resurrection — are amplified through ghostly visitations, doppelgänger lives and the question of what, if anything, lies beyond human existence
Compelling
The nature and possibility of immortality is a recurring theme, and digressions abound — communicating trees, broken families, Chernobyl, death, etc. But by sticking close to his characters, Knausgaard addresses those heady topics with
an easy-going grace
Compulsively readable...
Knausgaard remains one of the great chroniclers of the moment-by-moment experience of life
An intelligent, expansive novel
Immersive… It is so engrossing and entertaining
that I crammed in its 800 pages like a glutton devouring a box of chocolates
Knausgaard, master of fiction
as an inquiry into the self, now revives fiction as an inquiry into the cosmos, re-enchanting the latter with those
beguiling
secrets science had stolen from it
I read
The Morning Star
compulsively, and stayed awake all night after finishing it
.
