The future is no more, and eternity has begun. It's 1986 and a
nuclear reactor has exploded in Chernobyl. Syvert Løyning returns
home from military service to live with his mother and brother on
the outskirts of a town in Southern Norway. One night, he dreams of
his late father, and can't shake him from his mind. Searching
through his father's belongings for clues and connections, he finds
a cache of letters that lead to the Soviet Union. In present-day
Russia, Alevtina is trying to balance work and family. She has
always sought the answers to life's big questions, but is
preoccupied with care of her young son. Her friend Vasilisa offers
some nourishment: she is writing a book about an ancient feature of
Russian culture, the belief in eternal life. Meantime, Alevtina is
heading towards a meeting that will redraw the contours of her
world. A searching and humane novel, The Wolves of Eternity is an
intimate journey into the experiences of a half-brother and
half-sister in their two different - yet deeply connected - lives.
The second novel in Karl Ove Knausgaard's extraordinary new series,
it expands the universe of The Morning Star in the decades before
the blazing and mysterious star descends.
