Description (by producer & GT in English only) :
Knut Hamsun (1859-1952) syntyi kyläräätälin poikana Gudbrandsdalenissa Etelä-Norjassa. Köyhyyden pakottamana hän joutui 14-vuotiaasta elättämään itsensä mitä erilaisimmissa ammateissa: kulkukauppiaana, suutarina, opettajana. Esikoisromaani Nälkä (1890) pohjautuu kirjailijan omiin nuoruudenkokemuksiin. 1880-luvulla Hamsun lähti kahteen otteeseen koettamaan onneaan Amerikkaan, mutta palasi sieltä sairaana ja pettyneenä. Hänen ensimmäiset kirjalliset yrityksensä eivät saaneet vastakaikua, ja hän joutui elämään niukkojen tilapäisansioiden varassa. Nälkä-romaanissaan Hamsun kuvaa tämän elämänvaiheen tuntoja, toisaalta pettymyksiä, katkeruutta ja nälän aiheuttamia harhoja, toisaalta optimistista tulevaisuudenuskoa ja nuorta rakkautta.

Knut Hamsun on Norjan kirjallisuuden suurimpia ja yksilöllisimpiä edustajia. Hänen nimeensä liittyy kokonainen kirjallinen aikakausi, jolle hän antoi oman voimakkaan ilmeensä. Hamsun sai vuonna 1920 Nobelin palkinnon romaanistaan Maan siunaus.
