In 1922, Count Alexander Rostov is deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, and is sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol, a grand hotel across the street from the Kremlin. Brimming with humor, a glittering cast of characters, and one beautifully rendered scene after another, this novel casts a spell as it relates the count’s endeavor to gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be a man of purpose. This book is available at the Club Library, Kinokuniya, the National Library, and Amazon. For more information or to register, please call 6739-4308 or email library@amclub.org.sg.
