Description
Growth of the Soil is a seminal work by Knut Hamsun, a Nobel Prize-winning Norwegian writer. First published in 1917, it has been widely read and translated into numerous languages.
The novel is a lyrical and intensely subjective story about a rural farmer, his family, and their local community. It explores the tension between a primitive agrarian lifestyle and the modern world, as embodied by the protagonist's interactions with the complexities of rules and machines.
Published in this edition on premium acid-free paper, Growth of the Soil endures as a thought-provoking examination of the human experience, offering a unique perspective on the world and its inhabitants.
