Under the surface, it’s none of these things and so much more. Want to Read saving…. Shrek in the movie spoke of himself as being a person of many layers.

Nathaniel Schmucker rated it did not like it Aug 26, Where Chatwin is really at his best is in carefully crafted miniature stories, such as those having to do with his dealings with Aborigines artists, art dealers and their clients.

I can’t help thinking there was none. La vita religiosa di ognuno di essi aveva un unico scopo: I am a horrible reader sometimes.

Going back to Cain and Abel, myths and archeology point out that ever since chatwkn first pursued a sedentary life and created the villages and monuments we prize in museums, there has continued to exist the nomadic people who just may b Chatwin invests everything in this moving account of his research into the Songlines of Australia.

Unfortunately he felt the need to share excerpts with us–at length–that mostly consisted of quotations from other books, what canfi down to lecture notes, and vignettes from other travels. It would be too easy to say that white Australia knows nothing about the history of black Australia – too easy to say anything interesting.
I am a horrible reader sometimes. Chatwin never claimed that his work was true. Whether he vei his facts straight about the whole concept, I don’t know. The journey thus pre-empts the need for hierarchies and shows of dominance. As I came to understand the concept, I was moved by the perfect combination of reverence for the land, remembering the ancestors, and avoiding getting lost in a harsh and unhospitable landscape.
Thanks for telling us about the problem.
