Songlines, The
"Songlines" are what Europeans call the labyrinth of invisible pathways that meander all over Australia - they are both intricate sources of personal identity and territorial markers. From these, Bruce Chatwin has traced a great deal about Aboriginal culture, as complex as it is different. author: Chatwin, Bruce; publisher: Vintage

Vintage The Songlines (Vintage Classics)
The late Bruce Chatwin carved out a literary career as unique as any writer's in this century: his books included <I>In Patagonia</I>, a fabulist travel narrative, <I>The Viceroy of Ouidah</I>, a mock-historical tale of a Brazilian slave-trader in 19th century Africa, and <I>The Songlines</I>, his beautiful, elegiac, comic account of following the invisible pathways traced by the Australian aborigines. Chatwin was nothing if not erudite, and the vast, eclectic body of literature that underlies this tale of trekking across the outback gives it a resonance found in few other recent travel books. A poignancy, as well, since Chatwin's untimely death made <I>The Songlines</I> one of his last books.
