Notes

General Note
Título original: A gentleman in Moscow.
Description
"Aleksandr Rostov, aristócrata y erudito irredento, es un cliente asiduo del Metropol, el hotel más espléndido de Moscú. Nunca ha trabajado desde que dejó de estudiar, y aplica todo su ingenio y refinamiento a su pasión por los vinos, la gastronomía y la literatura. En 1922, los bolcheviques lo condenan a muerte; sin embargo, un poema revolucionario escrito una década antes lo salva de la pena capital, que el tribunal le conmuta por la de arresto domiciliario en el Metropol. En esta nueva tesitura, el conde irá estrechando lazos con una serie de curiosos habitantes del hotel y descubrirá los fascinantes secretos que guardan sus aposentos."--Provided by publisher.
Description
"A Gentleman in Moscow immerses us in another elegantly drawn era with the story of Count Alexander Rostov. When, in 1922, he is deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, the count 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 a doorway into a much larger world of emotional discovery..."--,Provided by publisher.
