Returning home, Dinesen became a writer, popular in America, where such works as Seven Gothic Tales, written in stilted literary English, were Book-of-the-Month Club selections. In Denmark, she became the center of a cult, the Heretics, young male writers and artists bewitched by what they believed were her psychic powers, her demanding and demonic nature, her sinister masquerades. With eating habits reminiscent of Kafka's "Hunger Artist," she died of starvation in 1962.

This historical overview of criticism of the famous Danish writer is the first such collection available in English. Composed of selections from major critics and scholars both here and abroad (including Aage Henriksen, Eudora Welty, Curtis Cate, Abdul JanMohamed, and Lionel Trilling, among others) Isak Dinesen would have suited the self-absorbed artist, who so delighted in being continually appropriated and invented within different forms of critical discourse that it became a source of amusement and distraction for her. For us, it is a reminder that literary works and their authors must yield gracefully to critical shaping for a literary reputation to take on a life of its own. To watch the unfolding of reputation under such continual reinvention becomes high literary spectacle. Readers of this collection will witness a major twentieth-century writer emerge from the judgments imposed by various critical schools in vogue from the early 1950s.
