Reseña del editor
The narrator of The Orient-Express, a wealthy tycoon born in Central Europe, suddenly runs from his home, his wife, his job, his commitments. In Venice the casual reading of a brochure leads to a trip on the legendary Orient-Express - familiar to him as a boy, it is now a perfect expression of the European civilisation lost with the war. As he journeys through the night, he sees how Europe has become a mere imitation of itself. Has he too become a mere imitation of himself? With sparkling irony, dark brooding and light wit, Gregor von Rezzori gives us a superb pyschological study and erotic drama that is also a profound commentary on a civilisation and its extinction.
