Reportage resists easy definition and comes in many forms - travel essay, narrative history, autobiography - but at its finest it reveals hidden truths about people and events that have shaped the world we know.

A visceral, on-the-spot, and unforgettable account of the fall of Saigon, war-ravaged Cambodia, and the Philippines in the midst of revolution from James Fenton, the right man in the wrong place in dangerous times.

But this can hardly be true. It just felt as if there was a lot of Nancy in evidence.’ Also in this issue: Seamus Deane, Primo Levi, David Hare, and John Berger.
