The Blue Slow Train [Chinese]

By: Wang, Zhao Jun

This book centers on the "blue trains" of Taiwanese memory, recreating a nostalgic journey through simple, poetic text and soft, hazy pastel illustrations, leading readers into an era of "slow living." The blue-and-white-striped trains, without air conditioning but with creaking electric fans; opening the windows reveals the scent of rice paddies, sea breezes, and the dampness of rainy days; their slow pace stops at every station; inside, they carry not only passengers but also glimpses of ordinary, simple life. Riding the slow blue train is like stepping back in time, evoking our longing for the "slow passage of bygone days," contrasting with our hurried present, reminding us to slow down and rediscover inner peace. Even children who never experienced the blue train era can feel the beauty of waiting and tranquility in the leisurely scenes.
