"Hunger" is one of the earliest and most influential novels by Norwegian author Knut Hamsun. It follows an unnamed young writer wandering through the streets of Christiania (now Oslo), sinking into poverty and psychological turmoil. Forced to contend with constant hunger, the protagonist teeters on the brink of madness while clinging to the last shreds of pride and dignity. Hamsun skillfully portrays the protagonist’s inner world, illustrating how both physical and spiritual exhaustion shape his actions and perceptions of reality.
