Le lettere di Bruce Chatwin

Ne è appena uscita una raccolta presso Viking dal titolo di Under the Sun. The Letters of Bruce Chatwin, selected and edited by Elizabeth Chatwin and Nicholas Shakespeare. Il libro "contains letters written across four decades, from the time Chatwin was a boy in an English boarding school to letters dictated from his deathbed. They cover his years at Marlborough College and as a boy wonder at Sotheby's in London, where he became, while still in his 20s, one of its experts on antiquities and modern art. ... This book runs through his years as a star feature writer for The Sunday Times in London, and his solo wanderings across the globe to report his own books. Mostly these letters are to his wife (who was not blind to his double life) and to a few close friends." nyt.
