"The Far and the Near" by Thomas Wolfe is not just a story about a nameless train
engineer. It is a story about almost everyone, which makes it a story with a universal theme.
How is it that most readers can understand and relate to the train engineer, regardless of
their own profession? What is it that Wolfe is (really) writing about? What point is Wolfe
making about life?
