Grand Hotel Europa by Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer
A sardonic, elegiac travelogue centered on a disenchanted poet who takes refuge in an ornate hotel in Genoa and uses its hallways, guests and staff as a microcosm to meditate on contemporary Europe—its art and architecture, cultural decay, migration, love affairs and the slow passage of time—mixing sharp satire, lyrical digressions and personal confession as he wanders the city and his memories.
