«El tren de los huérfanos» is the historical novel by Christina Baker Kline, published by B de Bolsillo in paperback (368 pages, in Spanish).
The story alternates two eras: that of Vivian, an Irish immigrant who as a child traveled on the orphan trains that between 1854 and 1929 carried abandoned children from the east coast of the United States to families in the Midwest, and that of Molly, a teenager in foster care who, while helping the elderly Vivian sort her belongings, discovers they share wounds and questions about their origins.
Novel inspired by the orphan trains, a real program that relocated thousands of children. The action runs from 1854 to 1929, with Vivian's old age in Maine. Includes the editorial campaign «CAMPAÑAS».
Recommended for readers of historical fiction seeking stories about overcoming, identity, and second chances.
