Book
Small world : a novel / Jonathan Evison.
Set against such iconic backdrops as the California gold rush, the development of the transcontinental railroad, and a speeding train of modern-day strangers forced together by fate, this book is a grand entertainment that asks big questions. The result is a historical epic with a Dickensian flair, that questions whether our nation has made good on its promises. It dazzles as its characters come to connect with one another through time. And it hits home as it probes at our country's injustices, big and small, straight through to its deeply satisfying last words.
