原文書名: A Gentleman in Moscow

中文譯名: 莫斯科紳士

作者: Amor Towles

出版社: Penguin Books

1922年十月革命後，俄羅斯逐漸轉型，昔日的權貴被新政權肅清，Count Rostov因為一首同情革命軍的詩詞得以逃過死劫，卻被軟禁在Hotel Metropol。

他優雅地看著旅館外俄羅斯橫跨三十年的轉變，並與一群志同道合的人們度過生命的悲喜。

以下為前首富大人Bill Gates 2019年的推薦文。

"A Gentleman in Moscow is an amazing story because it manages to be a little bit of everything. There's fantastical romance, politics, espionage, parenthood, and poetry. The book is technically historical fiction, but you'd be just as accurate calling it a thriller or a love story. Even if Russia isn't on your must-visit list, I think everyone can enjoy Towles's trip to Moscow this summer"
