How does one measure a life and how to make sense of it? Is it chronological age, or rather the sum of our days morphed into experience?
A constant reminder of the passage of time and the cyclic patterns of our existence, the four seasons have, throughout the ages, been a recurring allegory for countless writers, artists and the like. One of these is Norwegian author Karl Ove Knausgaard, whose Seasons Quartet was greeted with wide international acclaim, although the six-volume autobiographical novel, My Struggle, seems to be the ‘magnum opus’ of his career so far.
