'Knut Hamsun founded the modernist and postmodernist novel at once' writes James Wood in his introduction to this seminal work by a Nobel Prize-winning writer who has been recognised as one of the greatest literary figures of the twentieth century.A young man called John Nagel arrives to spend a summer in a small Norwegian coastal town, a stranger in a loud yellow suit who begins to behave very curiously. He shocks, bewilders and beguiles with his open defiance and erratic self-revelations.

First American edition of Hamsun's second novel. Octavo, original cloth.ĀTranslated from the Norwegian of Knut Hamsun by Arthur G. Chater. In very good condition. Rare. Hamsun's second novel, Mysteries, follows the story of a small Norwegian coastal town whose bourgeois inhabitants are shocked by a strange and eccentric stranger. The novel was originally published in Norway in 1892. It was translated into English by Gerry Bothmer and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux in 1971, with an afterword by Isaac Bashevis Singer, who said, "The whole school of fiction in the 20th century stems from Hamsun." The 1978 film Mysteries was based on the novel, set on the Isle of Man with a screenplay written by Hamsun and the director, Paul de Lussanet.

The first known dramatic production of Nobel Prize-winning Norwegian writer Knut Hamsun's 1892 novel "Mysterier," premiering at Oslo's National Theater in the summer of 1976.

The novel was adapted a few years later into a Dutch film called "Mysteries" in 1978, starring Sylvia Kristel and Rutger Hauer.
