Shadows On The Grass

Shadows on the Grass by Isak Dinesen Isak Dinesen takes up
the absorbing story of her life in Kenya begun in the
unforgettable Out of Africa which she published under the
name of Karen Blixen. With warmth and humanity these four
stories illuminate her love both for the African people
their dignity and traditions and for the beauty and
wildness of the landscape. The first three were written in
the 1950s and the last Echoes from the Hills was written
especially for this volume in the summer of 1960 when the
author was in her seventies. In all they provide a moving
final chapter to her African reminiscences.
