The Last Chapter is the story of the usual suspects in the Torahus Sanatorium, where most of the people sickened by the age are confined to relieve their pain... In the novel, a group There is a central character, but no obvious main protagonist. Suicide, who locked himself in a sanatorium after discovering his wife's infidelity and constantly threatens those around him to take his own life, is one of them. Another guest is the beautiful Julie d'Espard. When the father of her child, the fake Count Flemming, disappears one day, Julie takes shelter in the good-hearted and virtuous farmer Daniel.

The Last Chapter is one of the most different novels of Hamsun's writing career, focusing on the theme of death. One of them, according to authorities, is a sister novel to Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain. It is a story that tells how modern life corrupts people and reminds us that the solution is to return to nature and look at our essence.

“Hamsun's style is far from grandeur and ornamentation in its external appearance. Beauty lies in its simplicity. He philosophizes while explaining. But it is futile to try to predict what he will say in advance. A moral dogma does not pose a social hypothesis. His thoughts are as free as an ideal.”
