Lead Review
- Book: The Songlines
- Location: Australia
- Author: Bruce Chatwin
“The songlines emerge as invisible pathways connecting up all over Australia: ancient tracks made of songs which tell of the creation of the land. The Aboriginals’ religious duty is ritually to travel the land, singing the Ancestors’ songs: singing the world into being afresh. The Songlines is one man’s impassioned song” (David Sexton Sunday Telegraph)
