These five rich, witty, and magical stories from the author of *Out of Africa* include one of her most well‑known tales, “Babette’s Feast,” which was made into the classic film. It tells the story of a French cook working in a Puritanical Norwegian community who treats her employers to the decadent feast of a lifetime.
The collection also features a real‑life Prospero and his Ariel in “Tempests,” a mysterious pearl‑fisher in “The Diver,” and a brief, tragic encounter in “The Ring.” All the stories have a mystic, fairy‑tale quality, linked by themes of angels, the sea, dreams, and fate. They were among the last to be written by Isak Dinesen and show her as a master of short fiction.
