Akademica is a bookseller and cannot be used for covers and other book info (and also, the page gives a 404 error message). See https://help.goodreads.com/s/article/...A 1958 paperback cannot have an ISBN. If it is a later edition/printing, please give that date.
I don’t have a later copy of the book, and don’t know how to get an ISBN. I can provide a picture of my own copy once I have it at hand.
According to Worldcat, that ISBN and page count belong to the 2002 edition (1958 is the original publication date in Norwegian). I added an edition based on that information:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6...
Please check if that is indeed the edition you have (otherwise we can add another edition using the information in your copy).

Title: Skjebneanekdoter
Author: Karen Blixen, translated by Inger Hagerup
ISBN: 82-05-27833-4
Publisher: Gyldendal
Publication date: 1958
Format: paperback
Description: from the back: Skjebneanekdoter kom først ut på engelsk under tittelen Anecdotes of Destiny i 1958. Samlingen inneholder fem fortellinger, alle merket av Karen Blixens særegne sans for den gode historien. Beretningene er variasjoner over temaet "livets lunefulle lek med menneskene", hvordan skjebnen kaster ball med de små livene våre.
Her finner man blant annet Blixens kanskje mest kjente novelle, "Babettes gjestebud", hvor handlingen foregår i Berlevåg. Også en annen av fortellingene er laget i Norge, Nærmere bestemt Kristiansand. Ellers hentes stoffet fra Persia, Kanton og Danmark. Alt skildres av en suveren skrivekunstner, med fantasikraft og syner, eventyrsans og en dyp viten om menneskesynet.
