It was while on leave during the First World War that he met Karen Blixen (Isak Dinesen), who had gone to Africa with her husband to grow coffee, and who was later to write Out of Africa. From then on, their lives were to be deeply entwined with each other.An evocative and moving biography, Silence Will Speak is one of the books upon which the major Robert Redford/Meryl Streep film Out of Africa is based.ISBN:9780586066966
