Stream of consciousness
Symbolism
Cubism
Realism
Answer
Hamsun was one of the first writers to use stream of consciousness, which is a technique that depicts the flow of thoughts in a character's mind. This can be done through free association, which is when a character's thoughts are presented without any logical connection, or through interior monologue, which is when a character's thoughts are presented as a narrative.
