Karl Ove Knausgaard & Helen Charman: The Third Realm

The Third Realm is the third instalment of the series Karl Ove Knausgaard began with The Morning Star and continued in The Wolves of Eternity; like its two precursors, it is a breathtaking exploration of ordinary lives on the cusp of irrevocable change, ‘re-enchanting the cosmos with those beguiling secrets science had stolen from it’ (in the words of The Guardian).

Knausgaard was reading from The Third Realm and in conversation about its mysteries and complexities with Helen Charman, author of Mother State (Allen Lane).
