The wire devils

More about the book

The setting is a remote train station nestled between two twinkling switch lights, surrounded by the imposing Rockies. The station, described as a mere shanty without a night operator, adds to the desolate atmosphere of the butte-broken landscape. The scene is enveloped in silence, evoking a sense of isolation and the haunting beauty of the mountains. This vivid imagery captures the stark contrast between the man-made structure and the vast, unyielding wilderness, creating a mood of quiet introspection and mystery.
