INTRODUCTION BY JO NESBO AFTERWORD BY PAUL AUSTER
Nineteenth-century Kristiania is an unforgiving place, and work is
thin on the ground. Roaming the streets of Norway's capital, a
penniless young writer searches for inspiration whilst trying
desperately to make ends meet. Driven to extraordinary lengths,
sleeping under the stars with his stomach growling, the writer's
behaviour becomes increasingly irrational and his world spirals
into chaos. Hunger was Knut Hamsun's first novel and earned him the
Nobel Prize for Literature in 1920. A disturbing and darkly
humorous masterpiece of existential fiction, Hunger anticipated and
influenced some of the twentieth century's most acclaimed writers
including Camus, Kafka and Fante.
