## Description

A collected edition of Bruce Chatwin’s acclaimed, captivating novels – On the Black Hill , Utz and The Viceroy of Ouidah – with an introduction by Hanya Yanagihara While Bruce Chatwin is best known as a master of travel literature, his three acclaimed novels must not be overlooked. Here we see a writer exploring human life, from its freedoms to its limits, in ever more exhilarating and unexpected ways. In On the Black Hill , twin brothers begin to realise that the world beyond their familiar fields is changing. In Utz , a scholar visits a communist state to meet an eccentric porcelain collector. And in The Viceroy of Ouidah , an ambitious slave trader makes a choice that could threaten his ultimate dream.
