But with the shadow of Nazism quickly darkening Europe, Hamsun and his wife Marie embrace Hitler - who sees Hamsun's support as the surest way to win over the Norwegian people. Before long Hamsun and Marie are engulfed not only in Hitler's war, but also in their own turbulent relationship, and must face the angry wrath of a betrayed nation."--Container.
