Train

Train

The short story entitled Le Train which you can read on the French version of this page was written by five of us in the rers Association here in Normandy. (For more details of this Association where we exchange and share knowledge see article on Isolation and Reciprocity.)  While reading watch out for the local patois, called cauchois, which you can still hear spoken up here.  We worked together for several weeks creating the characters, plot, and spoke to locals to get the patois ‘correct’ and purposefully kept the events local, to this this part of Normandy.   Those of you who read French: enjoy!
The idea was to work and write together in the spirit of the rers, which I explain in the article cited above.
