London, Jonathan Cape, 1987

Taxes included. Shipping calculated at checkout.
Widely considered to be the best work by the British novelist and travel writer, The Songlines is a poignant, elegiac, and cosmic exploration of Australian Aboriginal creation myths interspersed with a running philosophical reverie on the nature of nomads.

First edition; 8vo; marginal toning to leaves; publisher's black cloth, gilt lettering to spine, spine ends slightly bumped, faint stain to top edge, with the unclipped pictorial dustjacket, slight toning to spine, minor creasing to spine ends and corners, overall a very good copy.
