About Author

Knut Hamsun

Hunger (Norwegian: Sult) is a novel by the Norwegian author Knut Hamsun published in 1890 by P.G. Philipsens Forlag. The novel has been hailed as the literary opening of the 20th century and an outstanding example of modern, psychology-driven literature. Hunger portrays the irrationality of the human mind in an intriguing and sometimes humorous manner.

Description

A hunter escapes the pressures of modern civilization to ramble through northern Norway’s forests. Thomas Glahn’s only friend is his dog, Aesop, until he meets Edvarda, a woman that breaks through his isolated existence. Hamsun explores the wild beauty of the landscape and forces us to look into the shadowy alcoves of the human mind. Written in the form of a diary, Pan is the novel that launched Hamsun’s legendary literary career.
