About This Book

In 1922, Count Alexander Rostov is sentenced to lifelong house arrest in Moscow's Metropol Hotel by a Bolshevik tribunal. Confined to an attic room, he observes decades of tumultuous Russian history while building a new life within the hotel's walls. The narrative follows his transformation from a man of leisure to one of purpose and emotional discovery.
