Why read it?
1 author picked Nights Below Station Street as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved this book because I loved the characters. Richards invested them with dignity even when they were flawed or endlessly frustrated by fate. They can go through life largely unnoticed except by their closest acquaintances and relatives. But they offer hope despite their failures and tragedies.

From Mark's list on novels depicting regions of Canada.
