"Ingenious, great fun, and wholly original"- Fay Weldon CBE, onThe Seventh Train
What if you can't stand where you are because there's nothing there? What if you don't want to end up anywhere else in case that's emptytoo? When life has lost its road map, sometimes the only way to get back on track is to get back on the rails.
The Seventh Train is a ride - a 'road movie' on the railways. It's a journey that Elizabeth invented; the only original thought she has ever had inher previously uneventful life. Unbeknown to her, she is not travelling alone. If only she'd pretended that the spare seat was taken.
With a wonderfully eclectic cast of characters,
The Seventh Traintakes its passengers on a journey from the tragic to the strange, arrivingfinally at hope. By turns heart-breaking, thought-provoking and hilarious, this tale is a life-affirming exploration of the human spirit via the Britishrailway timetable!
