Аннотация
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. There is also 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.
