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.
The love of woman and womanliness is a masculine characteristic,and the love of man and manliness is a feminine characteristic
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。
评分没有什么主要情节的小说,语言和非洲只有治愈的爱
评分Every evening,I paged through this book a little bit,just like tasting a sip of café...It's palatable...
评分高中时为了某个人读但最终记住却是KarenBlixen. The oxen is perpetually powerful.
用了12天的时间读毕走出非洲,虽然多是用零星的时间拼凑起来,却感觉从那一句''I had a farm in Africa''开始,就深深沉浸在这本书的氛围里,一气呵成。这12天,其中有8天在苏格兰度过。虽然苏格兰和非洲很不同,却有非常惊人的相似的气质,觉得真是读这本书的合适的地方。读到...
评分电影《走出非洲》是我的最爱之一,当我怀着爱屋及乌的心情读完同名小说,我只能说,它们就像是同名的两朵花,没有孰优孰劣,完全是不同的感受。 电影让我怀着幽微悲戚的心情缅怀了一个结局令人遗憾的爱情故事;但读过小说,我才发现,有关爱情的篇章不过是广袤沙漠中的掠过的...
评分文/路阿叮 “走出非洲”我是先看的电影后去的故居,最后才看的原著。过程有些颠覆却异常让人寻味。 起初,是一位女性朋友极力推荐,冲着梅姨找来电影,在夜晚的被窝里看完。不顾...
评分凯伦·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...
