Martha Grimes: The Train Now Departing (USA 2000) From the Publisher: In Hotel Paradise, of which Andrew Vachss said, "only the magnificent Martha Grimes could have written this book," she portrayed the emotional isolation and identity quest of adolescence. Here, in The Train Now Departing, she explores it with equal power in middle age. Two thematically linked novellas each center on a single woman living a quiet, well-ordered, seemingly contented life. But each harbors a man who imperceptibly embroils its heroine in something far darker. Passionately told in Grimes's inimitable voice, her newest work brims with the singular characters and richly textured prose readers expect from this bestselling storyteller. "Grimes is gifted at explaining the private, sometimes horrifying yet utterly mundane thoughts of ordinary people."-- San Francisco Chronicle Martha Grimes: The Train Now Departing. Two Novellas. Viking, ISBN: 0670891541 (May, 2000), 185 p., $22.95.
