N2  - One of the great figures in twentieth century literature is Isak Dinesen ( the pen name of Baroness Karen Blixen). At the age of twenty-seven, she left Denmark and sailed for East Africa to marry her Swedish cousin, Baron Bror Blixen. Together they bought a four- thousand-acre coffee plantation in Kenya.
