Manage episode 382482189 series 2935994
Bruce Chatwin’s first book — In Patagonia — changed our idea of what travel writing could be.
He was a traveler, an art expert whose keen eye for fakes made him a star at Sotheby’s, and to those who knew him, a perpetual house guest and mesmerizing conversationalist.
His friend and editor Susannah Clapp joined me to talk about Chatwin’s unforgettable writing style, and his lifelong obsession with nomads.
