A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles

When\, in 1922\, Co unt Alexander Rostov is deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tr ibunal\, the count is sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol\, a grand hotel across the street from the Kremlin. Rostov\, an indomitable man of e rudition and wit\, has never worked a day in his life\, and must now live in an attic room while some of the most tumultuous decades in Russian hist ory are unfolding outside the hotel's doors. Unexpectedly\, his reduced ci rcumstances provide him a doorway into a much larger world of emotional di scovery. Brimming with humor\, a glittering cast of characters\, and one b eautifully rendered scene after another\, this singular novel casts a spel l as it relates the count's endeavor to gain a deeper understanding of wha t it means to be a man of purpose
