From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Seasons Quartet (Norwegian: Årstid-encyklopedien, lit. 'The Season Encyclopedia') is four autobiographical novels by the Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgård, published by Forlaget Oktober in 2015 and 2016. The books consist of observations, diary entries, short essays and meditations, covering everyday occurrences and items, family life and locations around Knausgård's home in rural Scania.
