In this witty and entertaining collection of travel tales, an acclaimed journalist explores his obsession with trains – and what his rail journeys have taught him about culture and identity.

“I’ve gone around the world in installments. Every trip has been a revelation. I’ve watched regions, nations, and continents change moods and I’ve met more people on trains than in 40 years of airplane flights. Every train trip has been a spectacle. Trains are stages, cafés, bazaars. The only talk show that will never go off the air….”

Beppe Severgnini has spent his life traveling the world, and not just because he’s a journalist; he’s a passionate, unflagging train buff. Off the Rails recounts some of his favorite trips across Europe, Australia, Asia, and the United States, each journey bringing listeners not only to a different place but to a different time, from his honeymoon on the Trans-Siberian Express (in a four-person compartment!), to a winding journey from Russia to Turkey during the last summer of communism, to a recent coast-to-coast trip with his son from Washington, D.C., to Washington State.

Off the Rails is the perfect getaway for anyone with a touch of wanderlust, who dreams of escape or just likes to laugh. Filled with memorable characters and perceptive observations, it demonstrates – hilariously – what unites us.

With the world in chaos and life in perpetual fast-forward, it’s always the right time to hop on board with Beppe Severgnini and meet your charming, hapless, quarrelsome, romantic, shifty, quirky, endearing neighbors.
