The book arrived promptly and in good condition. It's nice to obtain the classics at an affordable price. I understand there is a series of her writings - these may be of interest to me in the future - too many books, to little time.

Classic Memoir
Um, wow. Can I just leave it at that? All memoirists should bow before the incomparable Baroness von Blixen, aka Isak Dinesen. For one thing, her experiences were truly life-changing and not likely to be shared by a majority of her readers. For another, in telling her life's story, she utilizes a plain, honest, and clear voice that somehow manages to retain a sweet lyricism, painting her experiences in vivid detail. The mind's eye can really revel in her descriptive language. "Out of Africa" tells of Blixen's time in Kenya owning and operating a coffee plantation, where she also acted as a sort of mediator for her Kikuyu employees. This is a book to be savored to allow all of its calm beauty to sink in.
