The 12 tales in this volume represent the last things that Dinesen wrote prior to her death in 1962. The first seven stories are from an unfinished novel, ALBONDOCANI, which occupied the author for many years. These are followed by two new Gothic tales and--of note to those who enjoyed WINTER'S TALES--three new Winter's Tales, each delivered in the fluid, magnetic style that continually draws us to her work.
From the moment Karen Blixen arrived in Kenya in 1914 to manage a coffee plantation, her heart belonged to Africa. Drawn to the intense colours and ravishing landscapes, Karen Blixen spent her happiest years on the farm and her experiences and friendships with the people around her are vividly recalled in these memoirs. Out of Africa is the story of a remarkable and unconventional woman and of a way of life that has vanished for ever.
