More from the Jerusalem International Book Fair which ran last week.
(See also the previous post.)
All these books are by Norwegian author Karl Ove Knausgård.
He was awarded the coveted Jerusalem Prize on opening night of the Book Fair.
At the ceremony he said very welcome and surprising things about how he learned about Israel as a schoolboy.
You can see a short TV report about him and about the fair.
His autobiography spans I think six volumes and thousands of pages and in Norwegian is entitled Min Kamp.
Fortunately neither the German nor English translations carried that title over as Mein Kampf.
More about his My Struggle here.
