Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0394742923, Paperback)

The 12 tales in this volume represent the last things that Dinesen wrote prior to her death in 1962. The first seven stories are from an unfinished novel, ALBONDOCANI, which occupied the author for many years. These are followed by two new Gothic tales and--of note to those who enjoyed WINTER'S TALES--three new Winter's Tales, each delivered in the fluid, magnetic style that continually draws us to her work.
