This was the second Karl Ove Knausgård book I read.

At first, I was looking for something light, similar to his book ‘Autumn,’ where he reflected on the world around him.

But to my surprise, ‘Spring’ was much deeper. It wasn’t just a letter from a father to his newborn daughter — it was also a reflection on parenthood, family, and his role in his children’s and wife’s lives.

Unintentionally, this book entered my life at just the right time and situation.
