Victoria

This is my second time reading Victoria, the first was more than ten years old.  It’s extremely simplistic and the plot’s been done before but there’s something very lovely about it anyway.  It’s about a relationship between a poet and a girl named Victoria.  The two seemed doomed as other engagements and social status get in the way of their love.  Hunger is the book that Hamsun is remembered most by and while that book is superb I don’t think this little gem should be overlooked either.
