Summary "Simon" by J. Storer Clouston is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around a mysterious middle-aged man traveling alone on a train, evoking intrigue as he tries to evade attention and conceal his identity. The themes of secrecy, personal motives, and the mundane reality of life interplay as the story unfolds, suggesting elements of suspense and perhaps even crime. The opening of the novel introduces a solitary passenger who is traveling on a train through northern landscapes, displaying a keen desire for solitude and discretion. He nervously shifts compartments to avoid others and appears overly cautious, even falling to the train floor as a ticket check occurs. This behavior hints at a concealed backstory, prompting readers to question his intentions. As the train nears its destination, the man’s actions become increasingly furtive; he avoids potential recognition and seems to be on a mission that necessitates stealth. These initial elements set the stage for an engaging plot filled with mystery and psychological depth, inviting readers to unravel the protagonist’s complexities.
