Product Information

From the New York Times bestselling author of Rules of Civility, a novel about a man who is ordered to spend the rest of his life inside a luxury hotel--a beautifully transporting novel. The mega-bestseller with more than 2 million readers, soon to be a major television series "Perhaps the ultimate quarantine read . . . A Gentleman in Moscow is about the importance of community; the distance of a kind act; and resilience. It's a manual for getting through the days to come." -- O, The Oprah Magazine 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. Rostov, an indomitable man of erudition 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 history are unfolding outside the hotel's doors. Unexpectedly, his reduced circumstances provide him entry into a much larger world of emotional discovery. Brimming with humor, a glittering cast of characters, and one beautifully rendered scene after another, this singular 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.

  • Lovely book, but CD I ordered arrived crushed in the mail.

    our book group is reading A Gentleman in Moscow. I have it on my Nook and have read it twice and recommended it. But my husband has severe Parkinsons and cannot hold a book or an electronic device in his hands. So recently we've tried to get him CDs of the book we are discussing. I ordered this book in CD. It was expensive and came all squished in a package. There are 14 or 15 discs covering the entire book. I am trying to help him use the CD player now to listen to the book.

  • BEST AUDIOBOOK OF 2019!!

    This book and this narrator are the best, bar none. My mother and I traded off discs listening to it from the library, and we had to own it. Every word Amor Towles writes is "le mot juste" and the reader gave every word it's due. When I read it, I tended to skip along, looking for something to happen, but on audio, I just sank down and LISTENED to the beautiful story and the beautiful words. We loved the Count, he is truly a gentleman, and the world could use more of those.
