«Orient-Express» is the novel by Pierre-Jean Remy, published by France-Loisirs in 1980, in French.
The narrative combines the historical splendour of the Orient Express, which linked Paris with Constantinople, with the memories of the diplomat Paul de Moray: his first journey to Budapest in 1913, his encounter with Maria von Pallberg and the reunion, after the Great War, with the singer Jenny Fisher, aboard a train that also carries a stranger in love with her.
Hardback edition. First instalment of the Orient Express series. The work was originally published in 1979.
It will appeal to readers of historical fiction and to enthusiasts of travel stories set in early 20th-century Europe.
