In this book, the author of Seven Gothic Tales gives a true account of her life on her plantation in Kenya. She tells with classic simplicity of the ways of the country and the natives: of the beauty of the Ngong Hills and coffee trees in blossom: of her guests, from the Prince of Wales to Knudsen, the old charcoal burner, who visited her: of primitive festivals: of big game that were her near neighbors--lions, rhinos, elephants, zebras, buffaloes--and of Lulu, the little gazelle who came to live with her, unbelievably ladylike and beautiful.
The Random House colophon made its debut in February 1927 on the cover of a little pamphlet called "Announcement Number One." Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer, the company's founders, had acquired the Modern Library from publishers Boni and Liveright two years earlier. One day, their friend the illustrator Rockwell Kent stopped by their office. Cerf later recalled, "Rockwell was sitting at my desk facing Donald, and we were talking about doing a few books on the side, when suddenly I got an inspiration and said, 'I've got the name for our publishing house. We just said we were go-ing to publish a few books on the side at random. Let's call it Random House.' Donald liked the idea, and Rockwell Kent said, 'That's a great name. I'll draw your trademark.' So, sitting at my desk, he took a piece of paper and in five minutes drew Random House, which has been our colophon ever since." Throughout the years, the mission of Random House has remained consistent: to publish books of the highest quality, at random. We are proud to continue this tradition today.
This edition is set from the first American edition of 1937 and commemorates the seventy-fifth anniversary of Random House.
Karen Christence Dinesen, Baroness Blixen-Finecke - wrote as Isak Dinesen, Pierre Andrézel, Tania Blixen, Osceola, etc.
A Danish writer, who mixed in her work supernatural elements, aestheticism, and erotic undertones with an aristocratic view of life, Blixen always emphasized that she was a storyteller in the traditional, oral sense of the word. She drew her inspiration from the Bible, the Arabian Nights, the works of Homer, the Icelandic Sagas, and the fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen, who was her great fellow countryman. She wrote in English and in Danish.
this is just a maaaaarvelous book! never read one just as good. decide to read it all over again!

评分因为深爱同名的电影而找书来看。书里并没有太多的爱情,有的只是她对非洲生活的点滴回忆。看似平淡如水的文字下面流淌着真挚的热爱与怀念。
凯伦·布里克森与安徒生并称为丹麦的“文学国宝”,可惜我们只知道后者。凯伦·布里克森仅就名字上要费一番周折,笔名伊萨克·迪内森,原名凯伦·布里克森,本名凯伦·克里斯滕瑟(坦尼)·丁尼森,夫姓布里克森,由此可见一个女人出书何等不易。凯伦出生于贵族家庭,十岁时(1...
评分如果我没读过《走出非洲》的原著,恐怕同名电影就要占据我脑子20年,幸亏被老友抱青强迫了一把,把原著读了,然后心里冒出了跟抱青一样的评语,“那部电影算个屁啊”。这种断章取义的YY已经发生在“查令十字路八十四号”原著与电影中,用无中生有的细节臆想出整部电影。而原著...
评分一本关于生命的书籍,特别适合在肯尼亚炽热的阳光和凉爽的风中阅读的书籍。 第一次读是在马赛马拉帐篷酒店里地沙发椅上,旁边就是书中所描述的景象,世事变化,现在已经不能够狩猎,但依然能够感受到作者在非洲大陆上浓烈的爱、执着的生活和无尽的遗憾。 也许这就是人生。在绝...
