An award-winning translation of the influential Danish master
Niels Lyhne is an aspiring poet, torn between romanticism and realism, faith and reason. Through his relationships with six women—including his young widowed aunt, a seductive free spirit, and his passionate cousin who marries his friend—his search for purpose becomes a yielding to disillusionment. One of Danish literature’s greatest novels, with nods to Kierkegaard and a protagonist some critics have compared to Hamlet, Jacobsen’s masterpiece has at its center a young man who faces the anguish of the human condition but cannot find comfort in the Christian faith. Tiina Nunnally’s award-winning translation offers readers a chance to experience anew a writer deeply revered by Rilke, Ibsen, Mann, and Hesse.

FromIndependent Publisher
The second reprint of Scandinavian masterworks is the second and last novel by the Danish writer of prose and poetry, Jens Peter Jacobsen (18471885). This edition of the book, first published in 1880, comes wrapped in a dust jacket festooned with enthusiastic praise from Freud, Ibsen, Mann, Hesse, Stefan Zweig, and most particularly, Rilke, who in Letters to a Young Poet, describes Jacobsen as one of the two writers from whom he has learned "something about the nature of creative work" (the other being Rodin). Niels Lybne recounts the life of its eponymous hero, a poet, emphasizing the influence of experience on psychological development and examining philosophical issues: the nature of reality, atheism, creativity and love. It is a dense narrative, striking at times in its richness of physical detail, although the prose, which occasionally sparkles, is baroque and at times rococo. The book's appeal to early modernists and champions of realistic fiction is understandable, but this modern reader found that the characters never developed into living creatures and with few exceptions were too obviously created and manipulated to address the author's aesthetic and philosophical concerns.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
