Jacket has the lightest of wear and is near fine. In this personal selection of stories and travelogues, Chatwin reveals part of himself as he looks at the world populated by the wise, the misguided, the beautiful and the bizarre. It follows his view of the world through situations; he abandoned his job to pursue his passion for world travel. Sadly, he did not live to see the publication of this book and died in January of the same year, aged 48 from a rare bone marrow disease, caused by a fungus he contracted while travelling in China.
