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.

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.

讀後感

評分

最近都沉迷在女性自主独立自由的氛围里,迷恋这个题材的电影、电视还有文学作品。也不是说这样的题材一定就要慷慨激昂,心硬如磐石;但生活在“冲破阻碍放心去高处飞翔的”环境里,总是仰着脸追寻着天边仿佛似隐还现的海鸟翅膀一样,时间久了,眼睛酸了,很容易就忘记其实,脚...

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...

在读第二遍,理由当然是喜欢。 关于《走出非洲》电影的知名度和美誉度已远远超出了小说,我,即是通过电影才转回头阅读小说的。甚至于梅姨塑造的女主角影响力也超过了小说的作者,当然,尽管如此,我还是要花费两秒种,打下这个名字,凯伦.布里克森----并且记住这个名字,以示...

Karen Blixen, 1885年生于丹麦鲁斯特,是为肯尼亚做了很多事情的一位芬兰女性。她最出名的作品是Out of Africa,以散文体描述了1914-1931年她在非洲经营农场的生活。这本书因为拍成电影而声名大噪。我没有看过电影,但是在来非洲之前看了那本书。书的开头是这样的--I have a...

"in the highlands you woke up in the morning and thought: Here i am, where i ought to be." 優雅的文字,白描式的英文,濃鬱的懷舊情緒,無邊無際的原始美。

评分

The love of woman and womanliness is a masculine characteristic,and the love of man and manliness is a feminine characteristic
