Train - Paperback

by Chihoi (Artist), Hung Hung (Author)

Already published in Chinese and Italian, The Train is the follow up to Chihoi's successful book of stories The Library. In it Hong Kong artist Chihoi adapts a short story by Taiwanese writer Hung Hung about a surreal train ride. With dream-like logic one of the characters asks, "Have you ever imagined the world outside the train?" The protagonist waits for someone, a woman perhaps, and observes with trepidation each time a new car is coupled to the train and the occupants spill out. Chihoi has done it again in this beautifully rendered pencilscape of a dream.
