About This Novel
The original novel of the Oscar-winning classic film of the same name is a masterpiece about African creatures. This book is one of the greatest English literary works of the 20th century and has been hailed as "one of the best books describing Africa". Its superb and unique narrative art has impressed a generation of great writers such as Hemingway and Updike, and the author Isaac Dinesen has become a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature. The original work and the Oscar-winning film of the same name have a profound impact (starring Meryl Streep, best picture at the 58th Oscar). The famous translator Liu Guozhi has an excellent translation that is as standardized as a Chinese textbook. Isaac Dinesen (1885-1962), whose real name was Karen Blixen, was a famous Danish female writer. After her marriage, she went to the then British Kenya with her husband, who had a noble title, to start a coffee planting farm. After the business failed, she returned to China in 1931 and began writing. He was once a strong contender for the Nobel Prize in Literature. The work is based on the author's experience of running a coffee farm in the foothills of the Ngong Mountains in Kenya from 1914 to 1931 - a vast land that is neither fertile nor fertile, but seems to be purified by nature. It ingeniously blends many people, scenery and objects into one. It is a faithful and literary observation and description, and it also always runs through the thinking about oneself and human nature. At the same time, it truly reproduces the life of European immigrants in the special environment of Africa.
