The Midnight Train by Matt Haig Audiobook Review – A Cosy, Feelgood Journey? Matt Haig's latest offering, part memoir and part exploration of mortality, is an uncomfortable probing into the nature of regret.
Critics might label it a "cosy, feelgood journey," but I'd argue that The Midnight Train (or at least its audiobook version) is something more profound.
The story centers around Wilbur Budd, a man in his twilight years on a train with the ghost of Agnes, whose life was intertwined with his own.
