:: design we love :: AMOR TOWLES

A must-read book for your fall reading list has got to be A Gentleman in Moscow. The author Amor Towles quit his intense job as an investment banker on Wall Street to write novels full-time and, to us, it seems he was born a writer with soothing prose, tidbits of wisdom and dollops of whimsy laced into each page. The story revolves around a noble man who finds himself imprisoned during the Russian revolution in the famous Hotel Metropole. You will be pleasantly surprised at how much happenings and goings-on there are in such a small place. We are glad this writer found his way into our lives and for the merriment it brought!
