About the Author

Knut Hamsun (1859-1952), a Norwegian novelist, was the author of Pan and Hunger. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 1920. A controversial figure, Hamsun’s public advocacy of the Nazi party complicated many readers’ reaction to the literature for which he was known and loved.
