2010 International Dublin Literary Award, longlisted for Book 1
Correction
This award entry mixes up both the year and the book. The Dublin Literary Award’s official records show Book 1, A Death in the Family, was shortlisted in 2014, while A Man in Love was nominated in 2015.
Full reasoning
The official Dublin Literary Award records contradict this bullet in multiple ways:
- The award’s page for A Death in the Family: My Struggle Book 1 labels it “2014 Shortlist”, not a 2010 longlist entry.
- The award’s 2014 prize-year page also lists Karl Ove Knausgaard — A Death in the Family: My Struggle Book 1 on the 2014 shortlist.
- The citation currently attached on Wikipedia points to the award’s page for A Man in Love, and that official page says “2015 Nominated”. So the reference itself is for Book 2 in 2015, not Book 1 in 2010.
- The official A Death in the Family award page also gives its publication date as 01/01/2012, which makes a 2010 Dublin Literary Award nomination for that English-language edition impossible.
So this line is not just slightly off: it appears to conflate Book 1 vs. Book 2 and 2014/2015 vs. 2010.
