I'll just mention that Nicholas Shakespeare also wrote the authorized biography "Bruce Chatwin". I remember that I enjoyed it very much when I first read it, but B.C. was terra incognito then.
That was several year ago but after this thread appeared I pulled it off the shelf to reread prior to tackling the "letters".(When I've finished my current marathon read/re-read on Egypt.)
Looking forward to Cally's return on this subject.
