Train Romance

Autor Ken Silvestri, Cat Weaver, Natasha Rabin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 ian 2022
In this collection of poems and images, Cat Weaver, Ken Silvestri, and Natasha Rabin explore the enchantment trains can bring. Trains share in the big and small events of people's lives, and remembered moments in them are depicted here as haunting, bittersweet, quietly nostalgic, and gently comic. "Train Romance" is a breathtaking book of poetry in which three poets have wedded a love of trains with their different poetic styles and a shared sense of rushing through space on a journey that may change one's life. In this volume, readers will hear the moan of a train's faraway whistle touching hearts with its sound of longing. They will enter spaces where the features of strangers open possibilities rather than represent closure. They will feel the rush of the great machine as it passes one by in a gust of wind on the platform. And they will be invited to recall or imagine the uncanny beauty of being inside something that carries them through the night, along tracks which, deep under their pillows, rhythmically click away the unseen distances.

I love the entire book and I am grateful to these three poets who have reminded me of the longing that trains so often inspire."

Anyone who has ever leaned their forehead against the cool glass of a rushing train as it rolls through a lonely countryside will smile in recognition at this lovely collection." VINCE McKEWIN Screenwriter, The Replacements , Fly Away Home "This beautifully evocative book ignited long lost memories as a little boy riding the Super Chief with its Pleasure Dome observation deck. Chugging through consciousness, the hopeful imagery of this book delivers us to a world that is full of sensation."
