this is an intimate memoir set amid powerful forces

om antiidyl

og hun står nu sent i livet overfor et internationalt gennembrud

Out of Africa this is an intimate memoirFrom 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, 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.
