TIMELESS BOOKS: Out of Africa, novel by Karen Blixen

OUT OF AFRICA

Reading this novel, like watching a fresco, you can find the beauty of African nature – and the human soul – but with all its colors, with all its strengths and weaknesses. An autobiographical book, covers the years in which the writer lived on a farm in Kenya with her husband. Flipping through pages that have been written by dozens of years, you will breathe the smell of coffee, and you’ll see indigenous Kikuyu to work around a farm, where he arrived a European hunter – Denys – the man who will leave in that geographic latitude shades of romance that the writer had forgotten. A deep feeling, like what Blixen felt for Africa.
