Closely Watched Trains by Bohumil Hrabal

3.0

I am not really sure what I think of Hrabal, I had read another book by him ([b:Too Loud a Solitude|87280|Too Loud a Solitude|Bohumil Hrabal|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1359996651l/87280._SY75_.jpg|284719]), and sort of liked it, but I didn't love it. I had tried to read [b:The Little Town Where Time Stood Still|87285|The Little Town Where Time Stood Still|Bohumil Hrabal|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1421011966l/87285._SY75_.jpg|1868927], but found that the introduction was better than the book.

Closely Watched Trains is better than the two I just mentioned, and I can see why it was made into a movie. The ending is amazing
