'Moving... A circadian novel, set over one day... Entirely ingenious' — Daily Telegraph
Spring follows a father and his newborn daughter through one day in April, from sunrise to sunset. It is a day filled with the small joys of family life, but also its deep struggles. With this striking novel in the Seasons quartet, Karl Ove Knausgaard reflects uncompromisingly on life's darkest moments and what can sustain us through them.
'Fall in love with the world, Knausgaard enjoins, stay sensitive to it, stay in it' — New York Times
