The work of the famous Norwegian expressionist painter Edvard Munch (1863-1944) holds many mysteries, dramatically embodies the "spirit of the time" - the atmosphere of Europe in those decades, which was the time of his long life. The most famous of his paintings "The Scream" for many became a tragic symbol of the turn of the XIX and XX centuries, a harbinger of world wars and cataclysms of the XX century. The book by philologist, writer and art historian Atle Naess - a reference modern biography of Munch, revealing the secrets of his work and allows you to get to know Munch as a creator and as a person. The author gives a heartfelt account of the artist's joys and hardships, his complicated family history, his struggle for recognition, his downfalls and triumphs, the people he befriended and supported, and, of course, his love relationships - and his fear of love, which for him was always associated with danger, loss and pain. The publication contains numerous color reproductions of Munch's paintings and photographs from the family archive. The author uses extensive factual material - letters and diaries of the artist, testimonies of contemporaries and other rarely published documents.
