Celebrated for its revolutionary literary techniques, this novel offers an unadorned portrayal of pastoral life, focusing on the everyday experiences of ordinary people. As a mid- to late-career work by Hamsun, it exemplifies Norwegian New Realism, showcasing a deep connection to the land and the rhythms of rural existence. Its use of stream of consciousness adds depth to the narrative, capturing the complexities of life in a way that resonated with readers upon its 1917 release.
