On the Black Hill - Bruce Chatwin

Detalii:

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 the twins and their interactions with their small local community, Chatwin comments movingly on the larger questions of human experience. nThe spellbinding (Los Angeles Times) second novel by the acclaimed author of The Songlines and In Patagonia nLewis and Benjamin Jones, identical twins, were born with the century on a farm on the English-Welsh border. For eighty years they live on the farm--sharing the same clothes, tilling the same soil, sleeping in the same bed. Their lives and the lives of their neighbors--farmers, drovers, clergymen, traders, coffin-makers--are only obliquely touched by the chaos of twentieth-century progress. Nevertheless, the twins world--a few square miles of countryside--is rich in the oddities, the wonders, and the tragedies of the human experience. In this extraordinary novel, Bruce Chatwin has captured every nuance of the Welsh landscape and of the lives and souls of the people who live there.n
