Description: "Arriving at Mugby Junction in an attempt to escape his unhappy past, a solitary traveller befriends a workman and his invalid daughter. With their help he sets his sights on discovering which of the seven lines of the Junction will most aid him in his journey of escape. In exploring one such line, he meets 'the woman he had lost', only to return to Mugby Junction once this situation has been played out. Staying there, and continuing his friendship with the workman and his daughter, he collects together the multifarious stories he hears around the Junction."--Cover.
