Note
A form that takes no direct object in modern English: a train arrives at the platform, a parcel arrives in the post, and a season arrives with no destination at all. The older transitive pattern, where a ship could arrive the shore, is archaic; today the place needs at or in. The same form carries the figurative success sense, so a writer who arrives has made a name rather than reached a place.
