Description



About the Book



The Norwegian Nobel laureate wrote Pan while living in Paris. Strongly influenced by Dostoevsky, it is above all a work of great beauty and simplicity that can be experienced on many levels. Commenting on his work in progress, Knut Hamsun said: "My new book will be beautiful; it takes place in Nordland, a quiet, red love story. There will be no polemics in it, just people under different skies." Although it has provoked many varied interpretations, the novel remains an enigma. Thomas Glahn, a solitary hunter accompanied only by his faithful dog, Aesop, wanders through the northernmost wilderness of Norway. Living in a hut on the edge of a vast forest, Glahn pursues his solitary existence, hunting and fishing, until the strange girl Edvarda enters his life.



About the Author



Knut Hamsun (seudónimo de Knut Pedersen; Lomnel Gudbrandsdal, 1859 - Grimstad, 1952). Seudónimo de Knut Pedersen. Novelista noruego. 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.
