Book Discussion

Meet fellow book lovers for engaging conversation.

Event Details

“Amor Towles skillfully transports us to The Metropol, the famed Moscow hotel where movie stars and Russian royalty hobnob, where Bolsheviks plot revolutions and intellectuals discuss the merits of contemporary Russian writers, where spies spy, thieves thieve and the danger of twentieth century Russia lurks outside its marbled walls. It’s also where wealthy Count Alexander Rostov lives under house arrest for a poem deemed incendiary by the Bolsheviks . . . Despite being confined to the hallway of the hotel, the Count lives an absorbing, adventure-filled existence, filled with capers, conspiracies and culture.”

If this sweeping, yet confined offering sounds like your cup of tea, meet fellow book lovers for an engaging conversation about this novel in MPL’s Second Floor Board Room. Pick up your copy of “A Gentleman in Moscow” near the First Floor’s Service Desk.
