Produktbeschreibung

The New York Times bestselling novel from the author of Station Eleven, The Glass Hotel is the story of the lives caught up in two very different tragedies: a woman disappearing from a container ship off the coast of Mauritania and a massive Ponzi scheme imploding in New York, dragging countless fortunes with it.

The New York Times bestselling novel, from the author of Station Eleven.'A damn fine novel . . . haunting and evocative and immersive' George R R MartinVincent is the beautiful bartender at the Hotel Caiette, a five-star glass-and-cedar palace on the northernmost tip of Vancouver Island. New York financier Jonathan Alkaitis owns the hotel. When he passes Vincent his card with a tip, its the beginning of their life together. That same day, a hooded figure scrawls a note on the windowed wall of the hotel: Why dont you swallow broken glass. Leon Prevant, a shipping executive for a company called Neptune-Avramidis, sees the note from the hotel bar and is shaken to his core. Thirteen years later Vincent mysteriously disappears from the deck of a Neptune-Avramidis ship. Weaving together the lives of these characters, Emily St. John Mandel's The Glass Hotel moves between the ship, the towers of Manhattan, and the wilderness of remote British Columbia, painting a breathtaking picture of greed and guilt, fantasy and delusion, art and the ghosts of our pasts.
