Lærredsindbundet luksusgenudgivelse. Bogen, der blev Karen Blixens officielle debut - med moderne retskrivning.Den udkom oprindeligt på engelsk i 1934, blev med det samme en bestseller og gav hende et internationalt gennembrud. Fortællingerne handler om så fundamentale emner som; mennesket og dets skæbne, forholdet mellem mandligt og kvindeligt - mellem livet og kunsten.

"Den afrikanske farm" er Karen Blixens digteriske erindringsværk, om de sytten år hun boede på farmen i Kenya. Det er hendes poetiske hyldest til naturen, dyrelivet og ikke mindst de indfødte, for hvem hun blev leder, lærer, læge og dommer. Og så er det naturligvis historien om mødet med hendes store kærlighed, Denys Finch Hatton.

Dans le fjord norvégien de Berlewaag, un pasteur a élevé dans l'humilité et le dénuement Martine et Philippa, ses deux filles. La communauté pieuse veille sur ses "petites sœurs" après la disparition de leur saint père, quand elles recueillent chez elles Babette. Cette réfugiée française, rescapée des massacres qui ont suivi la Commune de Paris, devient leur servante. Mais lorsqu'elle remporte une somme fabuleuse à la loterie, les sœurs s'inquiètent de la voir partir. Babette les prie de la laisser préparer en l'honneur de leur père un souper fin à la française.

Story
"Il pranzo di Babette e La storia immortale", due dei più significativi racconti della raccolta Capricci del destino, ruotano intorno al tema del contrasto tra mondo immaginario e mondo reale, tra le umane fantasie e le convenzioni dell'agire umano. Al centro de "Il pranzo di Babette", dal quale è stato tratto l'omonimo film vincitore dell'Oscar, è il personaggio della cuoca comunarda che, crollati gli ideali rivoluzionari, vive esule in un mondo grigio e frugale. Ma il potere visionario di Babette trionfa, paradossalmente e orgogliosamente, sulle miserie della quotidianità.

Pellegrina Leoni, la diva qui a perdu sa voix, fuit Rome et rencontre un homme dans les montagnes. Il lui raconte son secret qui le tient éloigné de la civilisation. Confiante que, malgré la dureté de la vie, Dieu octroie parfois un "da capo", un recommencement, une résurrection, elle se réfugie dans l'église d'un petit village. Elle y entend alors sa propre voix, dans le corps d'un enfant, chanter le "Magnificat". Elle décide alors de prendre comme élève ce jeune soliste, rescapé d'une catastrophe.

Story
I dag kan det måske virke en smule gammeldags at have et motto. Men sådan var det ikke for den store danske forfatterinde Karen Blixen, der havde hele fire mottoer, som vejledte og hjalp hende gennem livet. Selv forklarede hun, at mottoerne hjalp hende med at finde en retning i tilværelsen og forløse de evner og kræfter, der boede i hende. Og af samme grund så hun også mottoet som magisk for den, det tilhørte. "Mit livs mottoer og andre essays" er Blixens tale om mottoer til Det amerikanske akademi i 1959 og andre gode essays fra forfatterindes hånd.

Story
"Jag hade en farm i Afrika vid foten av berget Ngong." Så lyder den berömda öppningen i Karen Blixens minnesroman Den afrikanska farmen. Romanen handlar om de 17 åren, från 1914 till 1931, då Karen Blixen drev en kaffefarm i det nuvarande Kenya. Blixen såg dessa år som några av de rikaste i sitt liv. Hon älskade det afrikanska landskapet och var betagen av de vilda djuren och hon fick dessutom god kontakt med de infödda, varav hon med flera knöt starka vänskapsband.

Story
Le symbole mystérieux d'un collier qui a une perle de trop. La réalité crue qui vient anéantir le rêve et le bonheur offerts à une jeune aristocrate insouciante. L'aventure, dans le port d'Anvers, d'un écrivain malheureux, qui fuit sa propre vie... Tels sont les thèmes et les personnages de ces trois contes. Et à travers eux, Karen Blixen nous démontre que le conte est bien l'instrument privilégié de l'exploration des mystères de la personnalité.

Story
I årene op til udgivelsen af "Sidste fortællinger" (1957) arbejdede Karen Blixen på flere forskellige bøger, men endte med at samle dem alle i "Sidste fortællinger". Således falder bogen i tre dele; "Kapitler af romanen Albondocani", "Nye fantastiske fortællinger" og "Nye Vinter-eventyr". Med "Sidste fortællinger" blev Karen Blixen for alvor anerkendt som en af de helt store stemmer i verdenslitteraturen. Samlingen indeholder blandt andet "Det ubeskrevne blad", som af mange er blevet læst som nøglen til Blixens store fortællekunst.

Story
Our ability to prevent and reverse these conditions—and feel incredible today—is under our control and simpler than we think. The key is our metabolic function—the most important and least understood factor in our overall health. As Dr. Casey Means explains in this book, nearly every health problem we face can be explained by how well the cells in our body create and use energy. To live free from frustrating symptoms and life-threatening disease, we need our cells to be optimally powered so that they can create “good energy,” the essential fuel that impacts every aspect of our wellbeing.

But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.
