Description
Inadvertent is the second book in Karl Ove Knausgaard's Why I Write series, offering a deeply personal exploration of his creative process. For Knausgaard, writing is about resisting easy thinking and preconceived notions that inhibit awareness of our lives.
He writes to "erode [his] own notions about the world" and to hit upon something inadvertently, from a position of defenselessness and unknowing. This book provides a cogent and accessible guide to Knausgaard's approach to writing, one that is both personal and universally relevant.
A meditation on the creative process, Inadvertent offers insight into the mind of one of our most prolific and ingenious artists.
