Time Train
About This Novel
"Time Train" is Patti Smith's new memoir that is hard to categorize and sincere in emotion after "Just Kids". The author calls this book his "road map of life," which is about memory and creation, literature and coffee, meditation and detective drama, about mourning and hope, and about time and its passage. There are a total of twenty essays in the book, like twenty suspended stations, connecting the cafes or other places she visited during her travels around the world. The dots of light reflected by the prism of memories bring readers into the place of her inspiration and desire. "Time Train" begins with Eno's Coffee. In this Greenwich Village cafe that she visits every morning, Smith sips black coffee and watches the mirage of today's world. With a nostalgia for the past appearance of things, she often immerses herself in a notebook and writes furiously... Her smooth and exquisite brushstrokes lead readers to shuttle between dreams and reality, the past and the present.

I feel like Zach and Smith have a pretty good relationship. He was about to leave, but he even went out of his way to tell Smith. Is it because Smith often comes to drink? So the relationship between the two has changed from customers to friends?
I think if Smith really opened a coffee shop, he would definitely recruit Zach. After all, from the look of Smith, he seems to like drinking Zach's coffee!
It's really not easy to write without context. Because it is easy for people to understand. I feel like what the cowboy said is right. I just don't know if Smith can understand.
