Will Bevis doesn't paint pictures with words, he paints an entire atmosphere instead.The Killing of Train-Man Brown is a beautifully crafted tale that elicits a sense of wonder and nostalgia for times forgotten and people lost. I never met Train-Man Brown nor was I aware of the history of mail trains, but as I sit here typing these words I feel as though I've always known about both.Read and savor this bittersweet story of a man whose identity is so deeply ingrained in his occupation that his very life and breath are reflections of it. You're sure to come away enriched.
