Read moreThe Norwegian writer Knut Hamsun is widely regarded as the originator of the modern novel and was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1920. In recent years, however, his strong sympathies for Nazism were highlighted and a dark shadow fell over the author. Knut Hamsun's path to success (and failure) was long and varied.
