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!
评分高中时为了某个人读但最终记住却是KarenBlixen. The oxen is perpetually powerful.

丹麦作家凯伦。布里克森,绰号雌狮的小说《走出非洲》已经在我家沉寂了多年。 90年代刚流行镭射电影,当时放了一批好电影,票价是5元,对我这个穷学生来说,看这样的电影手头还是很吃紧的。那应该是大年初三,我坐在空荡荡的小放映厅看梅韦尔。斯特里普主演的《走出非洲》。...
评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...
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...
