<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"A director is trying to adapt a short story he once wrote for the screen. The story is about an isolated train station under threat by a giant eagle in a small town where rumors of war are rumbling. But the film shoot is plagued by accidents. The actors and crew don't understand the script. They argue over its meaning and perhaps come to identify with its subject matter a little too closely. Soon enough reality, such as it is, begins to crumble. Roman de Gare is a dreamlike and ominous novel by a great European writer--and the first novel he composed in French."--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A director is trying to adapt a short story he once wrote for the screen.</b></p><p>The story is about an isolated train station under threat by a giant eagle in a small town where rumors of war are rumbling.
