À propos de cet audio

In this Hugo Award-winning classic, Enoch Wallace is an ageless hermit, striding across his untended farm as he has done for over a century, still carrying the gun with which he had served in the Civil War. But what his neighbors must never know is that, inside his unchanging house, he meets with a host of unimaginable friends from the farthest stars.

More than a hundred years before, an alien named Ulysses had recruited Enoch as the keeper of Earth's only galactic transfer station. Now, as Enoch studies the progress of Earth and tends the tanks where the aliens appear, the charts he made indicate his world is doomed to destruction. His alien friends can only offer help that seems worse than the dreaded disaster. Then he discovers the horror that lies across the galaxy.

BONUS AUDIO: Way Station includes an exclusive introduction by Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Mike Resnick.

I enjoyed Way station immensely decades ago but while it is an excellent story well written, the sixties ways are too present and marred the original lustre.

Clearly from the sixties

First read this book back and in the 1960’s and loved the story but forgot the title over the years. ReDiscovered the book and it took me back to the joy and optimism of youth. Highly recommend to all.

Great Re-Read

It's shorter than my usual novel but this was no handicap here. The story compress the essence of a galactic aspiration into the walls of a small farm house. Who knew how important the unwanted part of the universe is. Plenty of lessons for earthlings even as we deal with COVID-19 virus today. Thank you.

Story of hope
