Book Reviews of Growth Of The Soil
Book Review: Hamsuns best book
Summary: 4 Stars
Read this a few years back and just realized I had neglected to ever write a review, (I like to write little reviews for every book I read) Out of the four I have read that he has written I would consider this Hamsuns best book. I believe this is the one he won the Nobel Literature prize for. Its also the only one by him that I have read that Hamsuns own personal screwiness didn't transpose itself onto the characters of the book. A basic description is a guy clears a patch of land in rural Norway, claims it as his own, marries and has a family and it goes from there. If you only read one book by Hamsun make it this one.
