Pan - Knut Hamsun - Bog

KNUT HAMSUNDPanFrom Lieutenant Thomas Glahn's Papers
Translated with an Introduction and Notes by Sverre Lyngstad
A remarkable new translation of one of Hamsun's most seductive stories
A lone hunter accompanied only by his faithful dog, Aesop, Thomas Glahn roams Norway's northernmost wilds. Living out of a rude hut at the edge of a vast forest, Glahn pursues his solitary existence, hunting and fishing, until the strange girl Edvarda comes into his life.
In his 1894 breakthrough novel, Pan, Knut Hamsun provides a lyrical, yet disturbing analysis of love and the dark recesses of the human psyche. Sverre Lyngstad's superb new translation restores the power and virtuosity of Hamsun's original and includes an illuminating introduction and explanatory notes.
