About this product

Produktinformation

Karen Blixen was born in Rungsted, Denmark, in 1885. After studying art at Copenhagen, Paris and Rome, she married her cousin, Baron Bror Blixen-Finecke, in 1914. Together they managed a coffee plantation in Kenya until they divorced in 1925. She continued on the farm until a collapse in the coffee market forced her back to Rungsted in 1931. Although she had written occasional contributions to Danish periodicals since 1905 (under the nom de plume of Osceola), her real debut took place in 1934 with the publication of Seven Gothic Tales, written in English under the pen name, Isak Dinesen. Out of Africa (1937) is an autobiographical account of the years she spent in Kenya. All of her subsequent books were published in both English and Danish, including Winter's Tales (1942) and The Angelic Avengers (1936). Among her other collections of stories are Last Tales (1957), Anecdotes of Destiny (1958), Shadows on the Grass (1960) and posthumously Ehrengard (1963). In the 1950s she was mentioned several times as a candidate to receive the Noble Prize in Literature. Baroness Blixen died in Rungsted in 1962. In 1991 her house was opened as The Karen Blixen Museum.

    Shipping took quite some time but communication was fantastic and I was even offered a refund because it took so long. Glad to see the item arrived in the end, but very great customer service! The product is in great condition as described. The price was very fair and packaging was decent (it could perhaps be better with some bubble wrapper). Great store, would absolutely recommend and shop here again.

    After waiting 3 weeks past estimated package arrival, I contacted seller and they send a replacement item. Packaging was very basic for a book, with no padding around the book. The corners were slightly damaged as a result, but it's not the end of the world, as it was a good price. Better tracking would improve the experience further. Thanks

    Fantastic Ebayer. I bought him some books before. The book is like new, the last owner treated it well, so I will do. The mail is best. I received a message in my computer with the day and the hour. It was cheap. I am completely satisfied and recomend this Ebayer. Thank you. Best wishes. +++++++++++++++++++++++
