On the Black Hill
Author: Bruce Chatwin
Genre: Literature & Fiction

Helpful Score: 2


Unlike most all of Chatwin's writings which seem to focus on wanderlust, this novel is the life story of two brothers who never wander far from their birthplace on the Black Hills between England and Wales. While there are no momentous events in their lives, the story is beautifully witten and captivating - it's a very satisfying novel and highly recommended.
