Bag om Pan
Pan is a novel written by Knut Hamsun, a Norwegian author who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1920. The story follows the life of Lieutenant Thomas Glahn, a solitary man who lives in a forest in Northern Norway. Glahn is a complex character who struggles with his own emotions and desires, and he finds solace in the natural world around him. As the story progresses, Glahn becomes involved with Edvarda, a wealthy woman who is engaged to another man. Their relationship is complicated and intense, and it ultimately leads to tragedy. Along the way, Glahn also interacts with a variety of other characters, including a group of Sami people who live nearby and a mysterious figure known only as ""Pan.""The novel is known for its vivid descriptions of nature and its exploration of human psychology. It is a powerful and haunting work that delves into themes of love, isolation, and the search for meaning in life. Pan is considered one of Hamsun's most important works, and it has been translated into numerous languages and adapted into several films.I fancy I can read a little in the souls of those about me--but perhaps it is not so.

There I sit, marking all this, and no one dreams that I see through every soul. For years past I have felt that I could read the souls of all I met. But perhaps it is not so...This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
