Writers on the Rails

In our new ‘Writers on the Rails’ series, we asked six celebrated writers to create an original short story, inspired by a journey on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express and prompted by a simple idea: what story the experience might awaken.

Step aboard the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express and discover the new collection of short stories penned by authors Elizabeth Day, Ottessa Moshfegh, David Nichols, George the Poet and Bernardine Evaristo.

The ‘Writers On The Rail’s book is available exclusively to guests travelling aboard the train. Book your place, settle in, and experience these stories where they were written: on the rails themselves.
