description: Pan by Knut Hamsun who won the 1920 Nobel Prize in Literature, is a multi-layered psychological masterpiece of human perversity &amp; pride in the face of love &amp; sensual attraction. Romantically awkward hunter, fisherman &amp; nature-lover Lieutenant Thomas Glahn lives in a cabin away from society-- alone, except for his dog &amp; occasional interactions with the locals including the young &amp; audacious Edwina, a free spirit who searches for a prince to conquer her, &amp; has not yet met her match. The two commence a peculiar hot &amp; cold relationship that evolves into a tragic psychological standoff. A classic literary probing of quirks &amp; vulnerabilities of the psyche, set against an exquisite Norwegian natural background.
