Wanderer - Illustrated
This illustrated edition consists of two closely related novels, Under the Autumn Star and On Muted Strings and has been acclaimed as one of Knut Hamsun's finest works.
The narrator, Knut Pedersen (Hamsun's real name), is in search of the simple life, which he hopes to find by wandering round the Norwegian countryside. However, he is continually frustrated by the wives and daughters of successive employers.
Other important works by Hamsun include Hunger (1890) and The Growth of the Soil (1917), for which he received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1920.
