Hunger by Knut Hamsun

He is starving. He is proud. And he would rather lose his mind than admit either. In the streets of Kristiania, a young writer with no money and no food wanders from day to day, clinging to respectability and his dream of writing. As hunger eats away at his body, his thoughts spiral into strange, feverish, sometimes comic delusion. Knut Hamsun's groundbreaking novel plunges inside a mind under pressure, and asks how far a man will go to keep his dignity. Beautifully typeset Tydbyts Classics edition.
