One Way Ticket: A Short Story


The first one is nice. Communications among people on a train was interesting. While some people keep talking, two people keep quiet. There is no words conversation among them.

However, they actually communicated without words, such as eye contacts or gestures. The third one is funny. I mean, I like the protagonist, a old man who is quiet and people hardly recognize him. Two people came into the same room of a night train, and began to argue. So, the protagonist could see all things happened. At last, he had a glass of vodka with frightened face. I may be weird but his frightened face looked cute. Oct 09, Yumi rated it liked it. Have you used a train to travel? I used an airplane when I traveled. There are three short stories in the book, so it was easy to read. The last story was about ghosts.

If I were a main character, I would run away soon after seeing ghosts. Sep 02, Amaor rated it really liked it.

Jun 23, Na Dang rated it it was amazing. These three short stories are fascinating and surprising. I read and listened to the stories at once. The voice is obvious. I assure that you can listen to them nicely without looking at words. I cannot stop myself reading until the last words. I love all of them, considerately. I would recommend the book for English reading beginner. Have a good reading time. May 09, Anrie rated it really liked it. Excellent for learners of A1 or A2 English. Dec 01, Blue H. This collection is brief and concise but there wasn't much deepness into it.

That is why I think this book is for younger audiences who are starting to read more voraciously but briefly only. There are probably harder words that is why. I like to move on, see new places, meet different people. It's a good life, most of the time.

Truthfully, this book was difficult for me to feel interesting. But I thought there was intellectual fun. So I want to understand like that. He doesn't know the man at all, and nor Julie does, but she gets off with him because she is totally attracted to him with no reasons. I still don't know why she does like this, but I know what this passage means. This book is a collection of three short stories. The passage above is from the first one, but actually I enjoyed the second one the most.

I think each of them is a little bit tricky to understand unless you are adult because especially the first one is kind of mature.

All of them was interesting but I like "the girl with green eyes" the best! The last story is about ghost. I don't believe the ghost but I felt little scary when I read this story.
