Out of Africa and Shadows on the Grass

Out of Africa and Shadows on the Grass
Isak Dinesen
BIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR •  1985 •  PAPER  • 466 PAGES

The famous tale of a naive young woman who leaves Denmark for East Africa. First published in 1937 and now a perennial bestseller, Out of Africa draws us into life on a struggling coffee plantation with its lyrical tone. Profoundly introspective and romantic, it's a moving story inspired by a love for Kenya and its people. Dinesen's home in what is now a suburb of Nairobi called "Karen" was made into a national museum after the release of the movie version of this classic book.  (EAF22, $14.95)
