Complete and unabridged, with 57 full-page plates by Edvard Munch, Peder Severin Krøyer and Michael Ancher. A young writer walks the streets of Christiania with nothing in his stomach, pawning his waistcoat, refusing help, and narrating his own mind as it comes apart. Hamsun had lived it — road laborer, tram conductor, farmhand in America — and the book made him famous in 1890 for a kind of attention nobody had used before. His later politics were disgraceful: he gave his Nobel medal to Goebbels. Fifty-seven plates by painters including Edvard Munch and Peder Severin Krøyer follow the northern street through rain, snow and wind, matching the novel's cold, exposed wandering.

Knut Hamsun

Knut Hamsun

Autor

(Lomnel Gudbrandsdal, 1859 - Grimstad, 1952) Ejerció las profesiones más diversas: aprendiz de zapatero en Bodø, y luego, siempre en la Noruega septentrional, carbonero, maestro de escuela, picapedrero, empleado comercial, vendedor ambulante y escribiente de un puesto de policía. En 1882 emigró a Estados Unidos y, a su vuelta, en 1888, publicó su primera novela, Hambre, que le proporcionó una celebridad inmediata. Su admiración por la vida bucólica y su rechazo a la gran ciudad lo llevarían a pasar grandes etapas de su vida en una cómoda cabaña del bosque. Fruto de esta época son sus obras Pan y La bendición de la tierra, por la que recibió en 1920 el Premio Nobel de Literatura. En esta misma colección han aparecido Victoria y su magnífica biografía Hamsun, Soñador y Conquistador.
