This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

Excerpt from The Wanderer's Necklace IT chances that I, the Editor Of these pagesmfor, in truth, that is my humble function - have recovered a considerable knowledge Of a bygone life Of mine. This life ended in times that are comparatively recent, namely, early in the ninth century, as is fixed by the fact that the Byzantine Empress, Irene, plays a part in the story. The narrative, it Will be Observed, is not absolutely consecutive; that Is to say, all the details are not filled in. Indeed, it has returned to me in a series Of scenes or pictures, and although each scene or picture has to do with every other, there are sometimes gaps between them. To take one example among several - the Jour ney of'olaf (in those days my name was Olaf, or Michael after I was baptised) from the North to Con stantinople is not recorded. The curtain drops at Aar in Jutland and rises again in Byzantium. Only those events which were Of the most importance seem to have burned themselves into my subconscious memory; many minor details have yanished, or, at least, I cannot find them. This, however, does not appear to me to be a matter for regret. If every episode Of a full and eventful life were painted in, the canvas would be over loaded and the eye that studied it bewildered.

Directly relates a little incident for a new textual. The "Wanderer's Necklace" is referenced by Seabury Quinn (1889-1947) in "The Curse of Everard Maundy" while investigating a pattern of several apparent suicides.

Excerpt from Wanderers An autobiographical element is evident in practically everything that Hamsun has written. But it is particularly marked in the two volumes now published under the common title of "Wanderers," as well as in the sequel named "The Last Joy." These three works must be considered together. They have more in common than the central figure of "Knut Pedersen from the Northlands" through whose vision the fates of Captain Falkenberg and his wife are gradually unfolded to us. Not only do they refer undisguisedly to events known to be taken out of Hamsun's own life, but they mirror his moods and thoughts and feelings during a certain period so closely that they may well be regarded as diaries of an unusually intimate character. It is as psychological documents of the utmost importance to the understanding of Hamsun himself that they have their chief significance. As a by-product, one might almost say, the reader gets the art which reveals the story of the Falkenbergs by a process of indirect approach equalled in its ingenuity and verisimilitude only by Conrad's best efforts. The line of Hamsun's artistic evolution is easily traceable through certain stages which, however, are not separated by sharp breaks.
