About the event
Amor Towles
NOVEMBER 7, 2017
Amor Towles burst onto the literary scene with his bestseller, The Rules of Civility. He returns with an equally enthralling novel, A Gentleman in Moscow, about a Russian aristocrat ordered to spend the rest of his life inside the Metropol, a grand hotel across from the Kremlin. Brimming with humor and charm, A Gentleman in Moscow paints an indelible portrait of a man confined by time and space who somehow manages to enter a much larger world of emotional discovery. “Marvelous,” – The Chicago Tribune. “How delightful that in an era as crude as ours, this finely composed novel stretches out with an old-World elegance.” – The Washington Post. “Buzzes with the energy of numerous adventures, love affairs, twists of fate and silly antics.” – The Wall Street Journal.
