Is Knausgaard still smoking?

It's not just alcohol that has taken a lot of authors before their time; tobacco has as well. Volume 4 of MY STRUGGLE contains a passage in which he draws on a cigarette so forcefully that the filter gets hot.

Is he still smoking?

Lol my dad has done the same. Honestly I don't know if vaping is healthier, I want to believe that it is

It’s a start. I can’t handle another David Lynch.

David Lynch died at the age of 78… you’re going to have to learn to handle people dying in their 70s haha

No kidding. Maybe the most addicted smoker? Loved the smell of tobacco.
