«Memorias de África» is the memoir by Isak Dinesen, published by RBA Coleccionables in hardback (396 pages, in Spanish).
Isak Dinesen recalls her seventeen years in Kenya, where she arrived as a newlywed, and portrays with a personal eye the landscapes, life on the plantation, and the Kikuyu, Maasai, and Somali communities around her. The book is an evocation of Africa as the setting of a destiny and a tribute to its human diversity.
Memorias de África was originally published in 1937 as Out of Africa, signed by Isak Dinesen, pseudonym of Karen Blixen. This 2008 edition includes a prologue by Soledad Puértolas.
For readers of memoirs, twentieth-century classics, and literature about Africa.
