A collected edition of Bruce Chatwins acclaimed, captivating novels On the Black Hill, Utz and The Viceroy of Ouidah with an introduction by Hanya Yanagihara

While Bruce Chatwin is best known as a master of travel literature, his three acclaimed novels must not be overlooked. Here we see a writer exploring human life, from its freedoms to its limits, in ever more exhilarating and unexpected ways.

In On the Black Hill, twin brothers begin to realise that the world beyond their familiar fields is changing. In Utz, a scholar visits a communist state to meet an eccentric porcelain collector. And in The Viceroy of Ouidah, an ambitious slave trader makes a choice that could threaten his ultimate dream.

Arvustused

One of the most influential writers of his generation * Daily Telegraph * A story lonely and rich and human... Every time I think of the events towards the ending I get goose bumps again -- Cynan Jones * Guardian on On the Black Hill * Brilliant, startling, marvellous... Once picked up, the book cannot be put down * The Times on The Viceroy of Ouidah * Quite simply dazzling * Observer on The Viceroy of Ouidah * Not a word is wasted in the telling of this tale. Each sentence is fashioned, polished, and put into place with microscopic care * Daily Telegraph on Utz * A writer no one who cares for literature can afford not to read * New York Times * When I think of Bruce Chatwin now, I think of the ultimate storyteller. Its the resonance of the voice and the depth of his vision that makes him one of the truly great writers of our time * Werner Herzog *

Bruce Chatwin was born in Sheffield in 1940. He worked for Sothebys and the Sunday Times before announcing his departure in a telegram: Gone to Patagonia for six months. This trip inspired the first of his books, In Patagonia, which won the Hawthornden Prize and the E.M. Forster Award and launched his writing career. Two of Chatwins books have been made into feature films: The Viceroy of Ouidah (retitled Cobra Verde), directed by Werner Herzog, and Andrew Grieves On the Black Hill. The Songlines was a Number 1 bestseller while On the Black Hill won the Whitbread First Novel Award and Utz was shortlisted for the 1988 Booker Prize. He died in January 1989, aged forty-eight.
