Impassioned by literary romanticism, the character of this novel embodies the portrait of the starving artist. The writer clings to his pencil stubs and his ambition, sacrificing comfort for dignity as his health declines due to his intense fasting.Hamsun’s idealistic philosophies spring up in his other works, Growth of the Soil and Pan, both available in eBook format.
