The ideal book for a train journey or for people who cannot resist the romance of railway stations.

No other place offers the restless as much space to linger as a train station. Stations are not just monuments made of stone, steel and glass. As many writers have recognised, they teem with stories. Simenon’s Inspector Maigret casts a critical eye around the Gare du Nord in Paris, Hemingway flirts with station café customers in a sleepy Montreuil, while W.G. Sebald introduces us to London’s Liverpool Street Station.

»Train Stations« records the alluring hustle and bustle of these places of arrival and departure and reveals the different desires connected with them.
