The Dreaming Child

<''As for me I have one ambition only: to invent stories, very beautiful stories''

Gothic, expansive and truly spellbinding, Karen Blixen''s short stories offer incisive psychological portraits and imaginative visions of war, longing and tender love. Here, an orphan boy creates an elaborate fantasy of a life of grandeur, a feudal lord sets a peasant woman a deadly task, and a young woman resists against her captors, in the midst of conflict.<>
