Pilar Vélez's The Sun Express 27 Stations to redemption is an exceptional literary chronicle gift. It is the literature of personalized violence, which exemplifies Jorge Luis Borges' postulate that states that all good literature is ultimately biographical. It is a definite example of the Colombian narrative of giving literary testimony to experiences in complex family life, and the subsistence of displacement in the context of 'sicarios.' These are striking texts that combine tales of daily life and traumatic events, descriptions of customs, and philosophical-experiential reflections in the process of psychological and existential catharsis. The connotations in this novel are realistic and symbolic, but they vividly show the theory of Tomás Eloy Martínez that reality is sometimes more fictional than fiction itself. The Sun Express 27 Stations to redemption is a poignant, touching gift in the first person that inspires personal growth and the improvement of the society in which we travel.

Built as part of the massive expansion of Great Britain's railway network during the nineteenth century, London's thirteen mainline railway stations are proud symbols of the nation's industrial and architectural heritage. Produced in association with The National Archives, and profusely illustrated with period photographs and diagrams, London Railway Stations tells the story of these iconic stations and of the people who created them and used them. Though built in an age of steam, smoke, gas lamps and horses, most retain features of their original design. This book will bring new light to these old buildings, and help you to see London's mainline stations through new eyes. Lavishly illustrated with black & white and some colour photographs.
