- catalog abstract ""The Aristocratic Universe of Karen Blixen, which contains photographs and colour pictures of KB's artwork, explores the confrontation with cultures and environments which are seen to limit and censure natural behaviour whilst at the same time imposing upon humankind unnecessary notions of sin and guilt. Analysis of her stories (especially "Babette's Feast") and of her world-view shows how Karen Blixen maps out hostility to destiny - this being a violation of Creation, which is viewed as both divine and demonic."--Jacket.".
