Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgaard’s autobiographical novel “My Struggle” is an unlikely literary hit. The six-volume, 3,600-page work recounts the mundane events of his life in vivid, sometimes excruciating detail.

We’ll talk to Knausgaard about the book and his recent two-part essay in the New York Times on traveling through North America.
