Guylain Vignolles lives on the edge of existence. Working at a book-pulping factory in a job he hates, he has but one pleasure in life... Sitting on the 6.27 train each day, Guylain recites aloud to a rapt audience from pages he has saved from the jaws of the pulping machine. But it is when he discovers the diary of a lonely young woman Julie—a woman who feels as lost in the world as he does—that his journey will truly begin.
