Bruce Chatwin
is one of the most significant British
novelists and travel writers of our time. His books
have become modern-day classics which defy
categorisation, assimilating elements of fiction,
essay, reportage, history and gossip, inspired by and
reflecting his incredible journeys. Tragically, Chatwin s
compelling narrative voice was cut off just as he had
found it. One month before his death he lamented,
There are so many things I want to do. Bruce had
just begun, said his friend Salman Rushdie. We saw
only the first act.1
While we shall never know the surprise of his
unwritten works, Chatwin left behind a body of
writing that is striking for its freshness; an authentic
conduit which allows us to return to him and to be
rewarded: a wealth of letters and postcards that he
wrote from his first week at school until shortly
before his death at the age of forty-eight.
Whether typed on Sotheby s
notepaper
or hastily
scribbled, Chatwin s correspondence reveals more
about himself than he was prepared to expose
¡n his books; his health and finances, his literary
ambitions and tastes, his uneasiness about his
sexual orientation; above all, his lifelong quest for
where to live. Written with the verve and sharpness
of expression that first marked him out as a writer,
Chatwin s letters give a vivid synopsis of his
changing interests and concerns throughout his life.
Careful and considered in drafting, the letters are
Chatwin s only unreworked writing, and a paean to
a disappearing mode of communication: tangible
proof of a life as it was lived, and possibly one of the
last great collections of a writer s letters. Comprising
material collected over two decades from hundreds
of contacts across five continents, Under the Sun is a
valuable and illuminating record of one of the greatest
and most enigmatic writers of the twentieth century.
Bruce Chatwin
reinvented British
travei
writing with
his first book, in
Patego/i/a,
and followed it with four
other books, each unique and extraordinary, He died
in
1989,
