Sveimarar
Sveimarar (Dreamers) from 1904 is an unusual Hamsun book, full of light summer nights by the sea in Nordland, fruitless serenades, and good-natured oddballs.
It is harmless and humorous in its self-ironic, muttering narrative technique.
But in the little village too, there is life filled with love, lust, fraud, envy, and suspense – even industrial espionage, that no one notices.
The dreamer himself, Rolandsen the telegraph operator, is an amiable giant, who, with all his charm, has a good grip on women. We enter his environment and follow him through his dreams of greatness, a deep, moral defeat, but also all the way back up to the peak of success.
A noble and entertaining novel.
