5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfull book that gives a picture of a strong woman
Karen Blixen (Isac Dinesen) is one of Denmarks best writers. Out of Africa is her main book that tells the story of her life in Africa. Read the book it is much more than the loveaffair with Dennys Finck-Hatton (Out of Africa with R. Redford and M. Streep)

The book gives a wonderfull picture of Blixens relationship with the natives and have that ancient athmosphere...

2.0 out of 5 stars Out of Africa
I did not enjoy this book because I found that it was very long and did not "Catch" the reader. I kept reading only because I was doing a review on it and I had to keep reading. I saw the movie and it is much better!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfull book that gives a picture of a strong woman, March 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Out of Africa (Audio Cassette)
Karen Blixen (Isac Dinesen) is one of Denmarks best writers. Out of Africa is her main book that tells the story of her life in Africa. Read the book it is much more than the loveaffair with Dennys Finck-Hatton (Out of Africa with R. Redford and M. Streep)

The book gives a wonderfull picture of Blixens relationship with the natives and have that ancient athmosphere that appears in all colonial litterature.

Read the book it gives a picture of a vere strong woman who knew what she wanted but again and again had to compromise according to her life and the oppotunities it gave her.

The book is one of my favourits because it has got everything. Love, death, hope, history, feminism, nature, africa.

One of several books needed for the English class, and the school library needed to provide. I was very satisfied with the price and the condition of the book.
