They shook hands and walked to the veranda which was of much joy to Andersen. He wrote in his diary, "We had come to the veranda, I was so happy to see and speak to England's now living writer, whom I love the most. He stayed at Dickens' home for five weeks. Shortly after Andersen left, Dickens published David Copperfield , featuring the obsequious Uriah Heep, who is said to have been modeled on Andersen. Love life Andersen often fell in love with unattainable women and many of his stories are interpreted as references to his sexual grief.
The most famous of these was the opera soprano Jenny Lind. One of his stories, "The Nightingale", was a written expression of his passion for Lind, and became the inspiration for her nickname, the "Swedish Nightingale". Andersen was often shy around women and had extreme difficulty in proposing to Lind.
When Lind was boarding a train to take her to an opera concert, Andersen gave Lind a letter of proposal. Her feelings towards him were not the same; she saw him as a brother, writing to him in "farewell God bless and protect my brother is the sincere wish of his affectionate sister, Jenny. A small pouch containing a long letter from Riborg was found on Andersen's chest when he died.
At one point he wrote in his diary: Give me a livelihood! Give me a bride! My blood wants love, as my heart does!
Just as with his interest in women, Andersen would become attracted to nonreciprocating men. For example, Andersen wrote to Edvard Collin: The femininity of my nature and our friendship must remain a mystery. In recent times some literary studies have speculated about the homoerotic camouflage in Andersen's works. In Andersen's early life, his private journal records his refusal to have sexual relations.

He never fully recovered, but he lived until August 4, , dying of insidious causes in a house called Rolighed literally: Shortly before his death, he had consulted a composer about the music for his funeral, saying: At the time of his death, he was an internationally renowned and treasured artist. He received a stipend from the Danish Government as a "national treasure".
Before his death, steps were already underway to erect the large statue in his honor, which was completed and is prominently placed at the town hall square in Copenhagen. The year was the bicentenary of Andersen's birth and his life and work was celebrated around the world. Of particular note is an original scrapbook Andersen prepared for the young Jonas Drewsen.

These few paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside: Some said that it was an old haunted castle, others that all the witches of the country held their midnight revels there, but the common opinion was that it was an ogre's dwelling, and that he carried to it all the little children he could catch, so as to eat them up at his leisure, without [Pg 20]any one being able to follow him, for he alone had the power to make his way through the wood.
The King, his father, who was a good man, believed him; but his mother could not be persuaded that it was true; and seeing that he went almost every day a-hunting, and that he always had some excuse ready for so doing, though he had been out three or four nights together, she began to suspect that he was married; for he lived thus with the Princess above two whole years, during which they had two children, the elder, a daughter, was named Dawn, and the younger, a son, they called Day, because he was a great deal handsomer than his sister.
The Ogress knew the voice of the Queen and her children at once, and being furious at having been thus deceived, she gave orders in a most horrible voice which made everybody tremble that, next morning by break of day, they should bring into the middle of the great court a large tub filled with toads, vipers, snakes, and all sorts of serpents, in order to have the Queen and her children, the chief cook, his wife and maid, thrown into it, all of whom were to be brought thither with their hands tied behind them.
