Everyone stares at each other with enormous intensity for the whole book.
One of the funniest bits is the three men walking through the train and everyone in the other seats turning to stare at them. Every tiny action is built up into a vast important deed, for instance a passenger opening his book, or the lighting of a cigarette. It takes them the first 40 pages to find the seat they want on the train. There is no real story, 3 strange men get on a train, ride it for 180 pages and then get off at their destination. I'm really glad I did as I really enjoyed this one, it's great!
I was a bit unsure about whether to buy this one, I had read his other book 'New Engineering' and liked it but though it was more clever than actually enjoyable.
There's the cover above and the colour picture on the inside of the dust cover.
