The Angelic Avengers by Isak Dinesen
Lucan has been orphaned, Zosine has been deserted, and London in the 1840s is a hostile place for two young girls without a home. Bound together by poverty, isolation and a shared childhood, they set out to make a future for themselves in new surroundings.
Isak Dinesen was the pen-name of Karen Blixen, who was born in Rungsted, Denmark in 1885. After studying art at Copenhagen, Paris and Rome, she married her cousin, Baron Bror Blixen-Finecke, in 1914. Together they went to Kenya to manage a coffee plantation. After their divorce in 1921, she continued to run the plantation until a collapse in the coffee market forced her back to Denmark in 1931.
