CHATWIN, Bruce, - The Songlines.

Title: The Songlines.
Description: London: Jonathan Cape, (1987). First Edition. The uncorrected proof copy. By general consensus, Chatwin's best book -- a "novel of ideas," as the publisher puts it, of Australian aborigines, and the questions about man that arise from the vast gulf that separates the culture of contemporary, Western civilized man from that of the wandering tribes of Australia, whose "dream tracks" or "songlines" delineate both a physical and a psychic geography. Production crease near front joint; else fine in wrappers. Unless otherwise noted, our first editions are first printings.
