Om ”I Patagonien” Bruce Chatwins rejse begynder i barndommen. Et lille stykke skind fra en brontosaur i Patagonien fylder drengens fantasi i en sådan grad at han som voksen tager ud for at finde det sagnomspundne dyr. Drevet af en rastløs trang til eventyr og liv gennemkrydser Chatwin i 1974-75 det vilde land ved verdens ende. Han møder efterkommere af udvandrere fulde af hjemve og drømme om det Europa de aldrig har set, amerikanske banditter og en skotte der fabler om at gå med kilt og spille sækkepibe; mennesker der lever i en slags eksil og som genopstår i bogens grandiose historier og tvetydigt glimtende personportrætter. En fascinerende bog der med et suverænt greb blander rejsebeskrivelse, historiefortælling, myter og fri fantasi. ”I Patagonien” er indlæst af Jesper Anthonsen i 2017 for Lytteratur hos AV Forlaget / Swann studio Anmeldelser af I Patagonien ”Rejse og fortælling smelter sammen til ét. ’I Patagonien’ er en ubeskrivelig læseoplevelse, som snor sig ad mytiske, krogede veje gennem den sydligste region i Sydamerika” - Pia Bechmann, Litteratursiden.

I Patagonien

A collection of full-cast dramas and readings from the giant of travel writing – plus a bonus documentary Author and adventurer Bruce Chatwin was one of the 20th Century’s most charismatic writers. His first book, In Patagonia, changed the face of travel writing and made him a literary sensation. Collected here are dramatisations and readings of some of his best-known work, as well as a bonus programme shedding light on his relationships and writing. In Patagonia – Chatwin’s picaresque masterpiece has been described as ‘probably the most influential travel book written since the war’. This transportive dramatisation stars Russell Tovey as a writer on a quest to the very end of the world in search of mythical beasts. On the Black Hill – Recorded on location in the Black Mountains, this is the moving tale of the lifelong bond between two identical twins, and their unbreakable tie to the land they farm. Ioan Meredith stars as Lewis and Benjamin Jones. What Am I Doing Here? – Patrick Malahide reads five essential pieces taken from Chatwin’s posthumous collection of essays. In 'The Volga', ‘Your Father’s Eyes Are Blue Again’, ‘The Bey’, ‘The Albatross’ and 'Konstantin Melnikov', we are taken on a cruise down Russia's great brown waterway on the Maxim Gorky, hear of hope regained, and share a toast to fantastic projects realised and unrealised. The Songlines – Michael Siberry reads this 10-part abridged account of Chatwin’s travels across Australia in search of the Aboriginal ‘songlines’: invisible pathways that are both intricate sources of personal identity and territorial markers. The Essay: Postcards: Bruce Chatwin – Chatwin’s editor and biographer Susannah Clapp looks through the postcards she received from him over the years, reflecting on what these missives reveal about the iconic writer.

Brought to you by Penguin. The audio edition of On The Black Hill by Bruce Chatwin. On the Black Hill is an elegantly written tale of identical twin brothers who grow up on a farm in rural Wales and never leave home.

In depicting the lives of Benjamin and Lewis and their interactions with their small local community Chatwin comments movingly on the larger questions of human experience.
