John Wain. The Smaller Sky (1967)

     John Wain. The Smaller Sky (1967) Arthur Geary has left his ordinary life to live at Paddington Station. Of course this small act of rebellion arouses the antagonism of all the normal people, trapped as they are in a network of obligations. In the end Geary dies. I started this book, and may finish it. Its style is dim, there’s a greyness about it all that is not at all appealing. The book will go into my collection of stories with a railway setting. ** (2002)
