One might assume that the “cyclops” in the title of Karl Ove Knausgaard’s first collection of critical essays published in English has something to do with visual art or photography, core subjects of many of these essays. But no, the immediate subjects of “In the Land of the Cyclops” are Knausgaard’s allegedly myopic critics.
“One cyclops . compared me to Anders Behring Breivik,” begins Knausgaard’s litany. “. Another cyclops wrote that I was a Nazi. . Many cyclopes have publicly contended that I’m a misogynist, that I hate women.” Another cyclops “has claimed I’m a literary pedophile who has abused young girls. . So what was my crime? I wrote a novel.”
