«Een lied van Afrika» is Karen Blixen's memoir of her years in Kenya, published by ThiemeMeulenhoff bv in paperback (334 pages, in Dutch).
Karen Blixen recalls her years in Kenya between 1914 and 1931, running a coffee plantation in the hills of Nairobi. After separating from her husband, the author stayed in Africa; the narrative covers her relationship with Denys Finch-Hatton, life on the farm and the landscape that shaped her writing, evoked from nostalgia after losing that land.
This is the Dutch version of Out of Africa, a work originally published in English in 1937.
Intended for readers of memoirs and travel literature, as well as those seeking portraits of early 20th-century Kenya.
