Edvard Munch : close-up of a genius

Rolf E. Stenersen's book about Edvard Munch is still considered a classic of the biographical genre. This is a text that has contributed to forming perceptions of the artist for generations of readers. Close-up of a Genius was an original unconventional work when it was published in 1944, and it continues to stand out as a unique contribution to the literature of Munch. A book is an attempt at a psychoanalytical approach to Munch's person as well as his art.
