I'm Waiting for You at the Deserted Station

It can happen on fine days, when a clear sky gradually fills with sunset hues. All you have to do is sit on a bench on the platform, truly imagine the person you dream of seeing— and, on the sunset train, it will be exactly him who arrives.

Everyone has someone they can no longer meet, even though they want it more than anything. A mother. A father. A brother or sister. A longtime friend. A first love. What could have changed if we had been given a chance to talk with them one last time?

This novel, compiled from novellas, reveals different facets of love, loss, pain, and forgiveness. Here are family disasters and quiet everyday dramas. Children and adults, parents, lovers, and friends. Under one cover are stories of very different people—young and old, girls and boys—who once had to survive the death of a loved one, and then learn the legend of the deserted station Sunzda. And most importantly, these are tales in which hope does not vanish—because, from afar, the sunset train keeps bringing it back again and again.
