5.0 out of 5 stars Chatwin's Wanderlust Knows No Bounds!, June 8, 2008
Bruce Chatwin is one of my favorite authors. In this text "Anatomy of Restlessness, Selected Writings 1969-1989," Chatwin publishes his collection of previously neglected or unpublished essays, articles, short stories, travel sketches, and criticism representative of every aspect and period of his career.

Chatwin's wanderlust desire, never quenched, is expressed in a full clear voice through his collection of tales; his literary sensibility reaching over a span of topics ranging from nomadism, art & antiques, archeology and architecture, and ultimately travel as he explains and expresses his quest and desire to "hang his hat" in a suitable place.

A fascinating book from a fascinating man. I would recommend "In Patagonia" In Patagonia (Penguin Classics), and "The Songlines" The Songlines as probably his best works and ones that anyone not familiar with Chatwin should start with.

Five stars without hesitation or reservation.
