Setting: train from Florence to Paris
My comments: This was a spoken performance that took place on a Christmas Eve train ride from Florence through Italy towards Paris. When the train encounters a blizzard it has to stop because it cannot continue, and two people whe have just met explore and get to know each other a little better. I think there was supposed to be charisma between the two characters, but I just didn't feel it. It was very short, so it didn't waste much of my time.
Goodreads synopsis: What makes for a wonderful life? On a crowded Christmas train from Milan to Paris, Amy, an American headed to meet her fiancé, and Martjin, a Finn headed anywhere but home, meet cute. But when their train gets delayed in an Italian Alps hill town due to a snow storm, they, along with a passel of fellow stranded passengers, find comfort and joy in a cozy inn, run by a wise Italian man who forces them to look at the holiday and each other in a whole new light.
