The City Reads...
Hotel World
By Whitbread Best Novel Award Winner Ali Smith.
"The kind of novel that is as rare as good room service, Ali Smith's Hotel World is a passionate, funny, serious, captivating glimpse into the lives of five people connnected to one branch of the ubiquitous Global Hotel chain. Brought together - and forced apart - by a bizarre incident involving a dumb waiter, we share their very different experiences of life in the aftermath of death, of pain and sorrow, of hope and love - everything, in fact, that the world dares to throw at us."
