The Station Philosophers' Club cover

The self-styled Station Philosophers meet when it suits them in the brasserie in Gare Bordeaux Saint-Jean.

There's William the translator whose head is almost in the ether and whose feet are not quite on the ground. He's in love with Clara, a student at the Conservatoire. And there are Otto the ex-train-driver, Alice the yoga teacher, Gwen who worked on a sheep-farm, Steph the scientist, Sean the Irish priest turned army veteran, and now, the waiter, Alex.

They all have stories up their sleeves, mostly about random events in their lives. One day William buys the wrong hat...

A love story to Bordeaux. Ian Forth,  Ex British Council, Damascus.
