Влакът за Емаус

A man named Mina takes stock of a life that has passed through trials and grief. On a train he heads back to Katalina, whom he first met on a stormy spring day when the lilacs had just burst into bloom, a free spirit in worn jeans with her rucksack on the ground, and he speaks to her in his head, returning to her for good after crossing the ruins of his life without her. A stranger on the train unsettles him with what he seems to know. The novel turns on slowly approaching death and the overcoming of the fear of it, on the discovery of faith in Christ and on the meetings we keep walking towards, like the sad, confused Gospel travellers on the road to Emmaus, whose hearts burn within them.
