{"product_id":"hunger-knut-hamsun-9781934169667","title":"Hunger","description":"Hunger by Knut Hamsun is a strange, semi-delirious, gorgeous narrative of a young man who wanders the Norwegian urban milieu and spends most of his time starving and contemplating eccentric ways of obtaining food for a few coins. \u003cp\u003e The occasional income he gets from his writing is barely adequate to keep him alive, and between the bouts of hunger he hallucinates and imagines -- and sometimes engages in -- sensuality in all its forms. Food and sex and vivid creative daydreams, in combination with a peculiar personal pride, keep him on the fringes, apart from others. And yet, his need for nourishment in every sense, physical and emotional, is overwhelming. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Even though it was completed in 1890, Hunger is considered a psychological masterpiece of the early 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Knut Hamsun\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1934169668\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781934169667\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Norilana Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/22\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Knut Hamsun","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43978826383615,"sku":"9781934169667","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f62b33bd-44ba-47ca-bcf7-be37121fc901.jpg?v=1683243174","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hunger-knut-hamsun-9781934169667","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
