Split Rail

Rate this book
Channeling introspective ideas surrounding temporary habitation and displacement in a diminished environment, Mark Welborn's 'Split Rail' is a chapbook of many paeans to a boy's heart aged. It is a literal wish, something marked with hand scrawled pentacles on every other page.

I will admit I initially bought this book purely based on the cover. But the prose grew on me.

Someone else used the word antipastoral to describe the contents. That is very apt.

It's an empty, quiet world pierced by train tracks.
