A list of books with narrators that wander, read, write, take the train, reflect on memories, a lot like a flâneur / flâneuse. The style may be stream-of-consciousness or all over the place, but written in a way that makes it possible to pick up and leave off. Maybe they drink coffee and go to cafés a lot. Perfect to read while you're also in transit in your own life, or if you're going on a trip, and you don't know which book to bring with you. It's this one.
