| Summary: | ABSTRACT:
This article reviews Marina Allemano’s intriguing overview of prolific Danish writer
Suzanne Brøgger’s oeuvre until 2004. This monograph includes a wealth of information,
from biographical details and insightful interpretations by important critics, to
musings about Brøgger’s symbolic and philosophical universe. This review essay also
offers a few interpretations of its own, and suggests some oblique references—in the
choice of photographs used in Allemano’s book—to Brøgger’s precursor Isak Dinesen
(Karen Blixen).
