Hardcover. London, Jonathan Cape, reprint, 1989, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, 367 pages. "With characteristic wit, compassion and erudition, Bruce Chatwin reveals his view of the world. In Hong Kong he discusses the properties of the 'dragon-lines'; he returns to the theme of The Songlines with his perception of life as 'a journey to be walked on foot', and in a run-down Algerian quarter of Marseilles discovers 'a notion, not lost, of all men equal before God'."
