About me / Bio:
Kristian Elster d.y. was a Norwegian writer, jurist, and litterature historian. He was born in Trondheim, but moved to Førde as an infant. In 1888, his family moved to Oslo. He graduated as a jurist in 1905 and worked as a secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture from 1910. He debuted as a writer with Fortællinger (Stories) in 1907, but his artistic breakthrough came with the trilogy I lære (In Training), Landeveien (The Road), and Mester (The Master), which depicted the lives and struggles of the oppressed and marginalized. He wrote about 40 novels, plays, and stories, some of them under the pseudonym Onkel Hans (Uncle Hans). His most important work as a critic was Illustrert norsk litteraturhistorie (Illustrated Norwegian Litterature History), which was published in two volumes in 1923-24, and in an expanded six-volume edition in 1934-35. He was the son of the writer Kristian Elster d.e. and the father of the writer and broadcaster Torolf Elster. He received the Gyldendal's Endowment in 1941. He died in Oslo in 1947.
