In "Station Eleven" by Emily St. John Mandel, the narrative unfolds in a post-apocalyptic world following a devastating pandemic that wipes out a vast portion of humanity. It intertwines the lives of several characters before and after the collapse, emphasizing the importance of art, memory, and human connection. Central to the story is a traveling theater troupe that performs Shakespearean plays, showcasing the resilience of culture in the face of tragedy. The phrase "on wheels of steel and wood" evokes the images of the traveling troupe and the journey they undertake to keep the spirit of art alive. Their performances serve as a beacon of hope and a reminder of the world that once was, connecting the past to the present in a society stripped of modern comforts. Through this lens of survival and creativity, Mandel explores the enduring nature of storytelling and its power to unite people even in dire circumstances.
