Hyy mate...✌
In On Catching the Train by A.G. Gardiner we have the theme of uncertainty, control, reason, identity, confidence and anxiety. Taken from his Pebbles on the Shore collection the reader realises after reading the essay that Gardiner may be exploring the theme of uncertainty. Gardiner unlike others does not have any faith in the punctuality of trains or any faith in those who work for the railway. He imagines (or projects) troubles in his mind that are unrealistic and more importantly he knows himself that they are unrealistic. However the thoughts still manage to take control of Gardiner and leave him anxious when it comes to the simple matter of catching a train. Though there may come a time when Gardiner may be late for a train or too early he has not had the dissatisfaction of missing one. Some critics might suggest that this is because Gardiner is prepared. However it is more likely that those who operate the railway are sufficiently talented enough to ensure the punctuality of the train. True there may be delays or cancellations but to date none have affected Gardiner. Yet he still remains anxious when it comes to catching a train.
