But Karen Blixen is wonderful, Out of Africa, Babette's Feast, Anecdotes of Destiny...well pretty much just everything she wrote:-)<br /><br />Herman Bang wrote great short stories - not sure if they are translated, but I think his novel Ved Vejen/'By the Road' is - a wonderful impressionistic novel.<br /><br />Then of course H.C. Andersen - not only his fairy tales, but also his memoirs and travelogues.<br /><br />Inger Christensen's sonnet collection: Butterfly Valley: A Requiem is so beautiful.<br /><br />Last - I promise - you must read Suzanne Brøgger - probably Brogger in translation. The Jade Cat is a wonderful book.<br /><br />I'm all inspired to do some posts about these great authors:-)carinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09086636830513427701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31111931.post-67451310400807449562010-11-08T18:48:26.092-08:002010-11-08T18:48:26.092-08:00Oh that hat box!!
