| Summary |
"Őszi csillagok" by Knut Hamsun is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book revolves around a reflective and introspective protagonist who seeks tranquility in nature away from the bustle of urban life. As he navigates through memories and the peaceful surroundings, he grapples with existential thoughts and encounters various characters that shape his experience. The opening portion of the novel begins with the protagonist appreciating the serene beauty of the sea and the surrounding forest during an Indian summer. He expresses a feeling of peace he hasn't experienced in many years and reflects on past lives, suggesting a sense of déjà vu. As he walks through the woods, he recalls a location along the Caspian Sea that shares a similar tranquility, hinting at a deeper connection to nature. The narrative introduces a character named Gunhild, an elderly woman who seems to embody the simple and persistent rhythms of life around him, and it sets a tone of nostalgia as the protagonist contemplates his surroundings and the quietness of isolation.
