qiaorui 's review for:
Hotel Du Lac
by Anita Brookner
Retreat to a luxury hotel in central Europe and think about your life, future and past. The exquisite food, the beautiful scenery, the art on the wall all act to soothe the common reader (me) into a blissful state of mind.
It is a common motive that I have come across a few times in the past year (grand hotel Europa, magic mountain). After the scene has been set, usually two themes vie for attention: deep introspections versus never ending gossip. This novel mostly contains the latter, but in a pleasant way. So don't expect too much and allow yourself to indulge and enjoy!
