Umrenningar. A novel by Knut Hamsun. Stefán Bjarman, an Icelandic.
Umrenningar, or Landstrykere as the story is called in Norwegian, was first published in 1927 and really marked a turning point in the poet's writing career. With it, Hamsun had freed himself from the self-indulgence that had plagued him for some time, and thus began a period in his life that was not only the most fruitful in poetic terms, but also the happiest. And Umrenningar bears very clear witness to both of these. The genius of the strange magician is everywhere as fresh as it is alive, and among the wandering people that Hamsun describes there with loving empathy and joy of storytelling, one can find a whole spectrum of sparkling characters, each of whom will be completely unforgettable to the reader.
