“I stare at Munch’s text. Cross-outs make me feel unwell.” Up against a deadline to submit a text about the famous painter, the Norwegian author Gunnhild Øyehaug delivers instead an entertaining treatise on "incompleteness" throughout literary history: bit.ly/3KIcDMp

“Does it annoy us, to feel that it’s only ‘apparent’ that Olds’s poems are personal—that is to say, coming from a real person? Does not the word also have something magical about it?” Gunnhild Øyehaug on Sharon Olds. buff.ly/3YXfjwA

"Sometimes when you read, it's like certain sentences strike home and knock you flat. It's as if they say everything you have tried to say, or tried to do, or everything you are. As a rule, what you are is one simmering, endless longing." —— Gunnhild Øyehaug, Knots

11. Kjersti Anfinnsen - Chwile wieczności. Chociaż skończyłem tę książkę dziś rano, to jej historia trzyma mnie do teraz. Refleksje na temat przeszłości i ogólnie przemijania w oczach i głowie bohaterki w wieku 90 lat. Podzielona na dwie części. Daje dużo do myślenia. @artragepl
