Über dieses E-Book
A POW meets other survivors of World War I in a Polish hotel in this acclaimed classic novel by the author of The Radetzky March.
Still bearing the scars from gulag experiences, a freed POW traverses Russia to arrive at the Polish town of Lodz. In its massive Hotel Savoy, he meets a surreal cast of characters, each eagerly awaiting the return from America of a rich man named Bloomfield. Like Europe itself at the time, the hotel is the stage upon which characters follow fate to its tragic destination . . .

“Roth’s considerable gift lay in sketching myriad personal convulsions in that time of conflagration.” —Publishers Weekly
