Set in the early 20th century, 'Train Dreams' is a novella by Denis Johnson that tells the story of Robert Grainier, a day laborer in the American West. The narrative spans Grainier's life, exploring themes of isolation, the transformation of the American landscape, and the impact of historical events on individual lives. Johnson's prose captures the rugged beauty of the frontier and the profound solitude of its inhabitants.
