SEVEN GOTHIC TALES – ISAK DINESEN

Romantics, adventurers, sensualists, melancholics and dreamers inhabit the bizarre and exotic world conjured up in these seven intricately interwoven tales, whose settings range from Tuscany and Elsinore to a dhow on its way from Lamu to Zanzibar.

Proclaimed a masterpiece when it was published in 1934, this collection is shot through with themes of love and desire—from the maiden lady who now believes herself to have been the grand courtesan of her time, to the Count whose jealous wife cannot bear him admiring her jewels, and Lincoln Forsner, an Englishman whose search for a woman he met in a brothel leads him into many strange adventures.
