Out of Africa

by Dinesen, Isak

  • Used
  • Hardcover
  • first
New York: Random House, 1938 First American edition. This is the true first edition (so stated) with the true first issue dust jacket, with the price shown on the upper front flap. [1], 389pp. Publisher's coated black cloth spine, gilt, rust cloth sides with gilt bird on front cover. A bit of minor spotting to cloth spine, but a fine copy with pictorial dust jacket (jacket lightly chipped at spine ends). A classic memoir, which recounts events of the seventeen years when Blixen made her home in Kenya. From 1914 to 1931, Danish aristocrat Baroness Karen Blixen owned and operated a coffee plantation in Kenya. After the plantation failed, she returned to Europe and began to write under the pen name Isak Dinesen. Out of Africa reads like a collection of stories in which she adheres to no strict chronology, gives no explanation of the facts of her life, and apologizes for nothing. Named by Modern Library as one of the 100 greatest works of nonfiction of the twentieth century and the basis for the film directed by Sydney Pollack, starring Robert Redford and Meryl Streep, which went on to win seven Academy Awards..
