by Amor Towles
In 1922, Count Alexander Rostov is sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol Hotel. What follows is decades of wit, friendship, and quiet rebellion — a portrait of dignity under constraint. Towles writes with warmth and precision, and the Count became one of our most debated protagonists.
