Hunger by Knut Hamsun because he influenced Charles Bukowski and he named him in the book I read previously, That Last Night of the Earth Poems.

In that book, Bukowski makes a list of his favorites authors and puts E. E. Cummings at the top, Ezra Pound second and Knut Hamsun third.

I also secured a whole complete works of Hamsun since he was Hans Fallada's favourite writer (whom I adore). I'd be great, having a complete overview of "all" authors with their respective top 3+ writers; tracking their influences, further immersing oneself with that "reading the same lines as they did" experience..
