An award-winning children’s book selected for the Bologna Illustrators Exhibition.
A humane, sentimental, and lively depiction of a part of history that has long been overlooked.
One day, a dark, enormous train steers its way into the island. It declares its presence and promises all the islanders that it will enrich their lives––as long as the islanders obey the rules.
Some islanders were welcoming, while some were indifferent, and for those who disagreed, grouped together, read books, and thought otherwise about the train being almighty––they were taken on the train, away from home. What are the rules established by the train, and where did my brave father, and the rest of the people go, after they boarded the train that promised us so much?
Huang Yi Wen’s drawings successfully render deep emotions and scattering of memories through shapes, line tracing, as well as bold and rich usage of colors. The contrast of colors brings us to the depth of historical complication, to experience the fear, the journey of Taiwan’s past in full immersion.
