"The writing glows with an intense awareness of the here and now, and loving observations of landscapes and objects... this is an extraordinary novel, and completely original." - The IndependentAntinous Bellori, a boy of eleven, loses his way in the woods in the mountains behind his home. Unseen, he stumbles upon two glowing beings, an event that leads him to devote the rest of his life to the study of angels. Bellori reinterprets moments throughout the Bible where men confront angels: the expulsion from the garden, Cain and Abel, Lot in Sodom, Noah's isolation before the flood, Ezekiel's visions... "The most original and promising Norwegian writer of his generation." - AdresseavisenThrough his profound glimpses, Karl Ove Knausgaard - an extraordinary storyteller and thinker - explores with spellbinding insight how the nature and roles of these intermediaries between man and the divine have shifted throughout history."Knausgaard joins the ranks of the greatest storytellers of our time." - Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung In the sixteenth century, Antinous Bellori, a boy of eleven, is lost in a dark forest and stumbles upon two glowing beings, one carrying a spear, the other a flaming torch . . . This event is decisive in Belloris life, and he thereafter devotes himself to the pursuit and study of angels, the intermediaries of the divine. Beginning in the Garden of Eden and soaring through to the present, A Time for Everything reimagines pivotal encounters between humans and angels: the glow of the cherubim watching over Eden; the profound love between Cain and Abel despite their differences; Lots shame in Sodom; Noahs isolation before the flood; Ezekiel tied to his bed, prophesying ferociously; the death of Christ; and the emergence of sensual, mischievous cherubs in the seventeenth century. Alighting upon these dramatic scenes from the Bible and beyond Knausgaards imagination takes flight: the result is a dazzling display of storytelling at its majestic, spellbinding best. Incorporating and challenging tradition, legend, and the Apocrypha, these penetrating glimpses hazard chilling questions: can the nature of the divine undergo change, and can the immortal perish?

Før i tiden, i før-bibelsk tid, levde englene på jorden sammen med menneskene. "En tid for alt" innleder med å fortelle englenes historie. Romanen utfolder seg i skyggen av kjente bibelske fortellinger og beveger seg nesten umerkelig frem til vår tid
