The Songlines, by Bruce Chatwin.
I recently picked up a printing of the 1988 Picador trade paperback and have begun reading it.
I'm not a newcomer to Bruce Chatwin or his work. Being sorely afflicted with the antique collectors' disease (corkscrews, Ainu bear carvings, eel spears, to name but 3 categories) I have read his last work Utz. I've digested The Viceroy of Ouidah, On the Black Hill, and his In Patagonia. I own and have read a galley proof review copy of Nicholas Shakespeare's biography Bruce Chatwin.
I've a copy of Chatwin's What Am I Doing Here? that I will read next.
