About this product

Product Information

'The book that redefined travel writing' Guardian 'The book that redefined travel writing' Guardian Bruce Chatwin sets off on a journey through South America in this wistful classic travel book With its unique, roving structure and beautiful descriptions, In Patagonia offers an original take on the age-old adventure tale. Bruce Chatwin's journey to a remote country in search of a strange beast brings along with it a cast of fascinating characters. Their stories delay him on the road, but will have you tearing through to the book's end. 'It is hard to pin down what makes In Patagonia so unique, but, in the end, it is Chatwin's brilliant personality that makes it what it is. His form of travel was not about getting from A to B. It was about internal landscapes' Sunday Times

    The item reached me in excellent condition. It was securely packaged by the seller to withstand the rigours of transit. It is an exact match to the seller's photograph and description. The item is good value for money and has a pleasing appearance. The seller's communication is good,but they requested feedback twice before my phone would allow me to leave it,as it was instructing me to wait for 7 days. I recommend this seller.

    Arrived very quickly, very well packaged and as described. Francis, the seller, kept me informed about the day of posting and arrival of the item. These were the cheapest new set on Ebay, which at £1.98 per axle, is excellent value for money. And although not strictly coach wheels, are certainly good enough to do the job, as they are very rarely seen whilst moving. A recommended seller.

    Stranger Things....

    The first of Chatwin's books but oddly the last to be read by me. Often said to be the book that re-defined or re-invigorated the art of travel writing. The skeleton of Chatwin's future style - much evident in say the Songlines - is there. The travel being merely a framework on which to hang any number of intriguing stories ranging from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid to the self-proclaimed King of Patagonia. However, now that we know that Chatwin was not averse to embroidering the truth or indeed simply making stuff up - then it is difficult to see how this can be regarded as "Travel Writing" as such or simply Chatwin's own modern peculiar hybrid of "travtion" or "fictrel" perhaps? Having said that, the book was never less than both entertaining and educational. And together with the ...

    Travel Classic

    In Patagonia is a long established of travel writing that, with one of two caveats, lives up to its reputation. The first caveat is that I found a period early on in the book that dragged and the second is that I couldn't help feeling that on occasions the "truth" of the book is embellished with a good helping of fiction. Bruce Chatwin is more storyteller than reporter; In Patagonia is none the worse for that and I thoroughly enjoyed what was on offer.

    Nice book

    The book that 'made' Chatwin in an attractive and inexpensive edition. Good value for money and a trip down 'Amnesia Lane' for me.
