THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES and NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFROM THE
AUTHOR OF A GENTLEMAN IN MOSCOW, THE LINCOLN HIGHWAY AND RULES OF
CIVILITY'A knockout . . .Table for Two is a winner'NEW YORK
TIMES'There is no better writer working today'CHRIS CLEAVE'He makes
it all seem effortless'TANA FRENCH'A gem of a book that springs
delights and surprises on every page'JEFFREY ARCHER'There is a
great deal to relish in Table for Two . . .If you take only one
book on holiday this summer, you couldn’t ask for a better literary
capsule wardrobe'THE TIMESMillions of Amor Towles fans are in for a
treat as he shares some of his shorter fiction: six stories based
in New York City and a novella set in Golden Age Hollywood. The New
York stories, most of which take place around the year 2000,
consider the fateful consequences that can spring from brief
encounters and the delicate mechanics of compromise that operate at
the heart of modern marriages. In Towles’s novel Rules of Civility,
the indomitable Evelyn Ross leaves New York City in September 1938
with the intention of returning home to Indiana.But as her train
pulls into Chicago, where her parents are waiting, she instead
extends her ticket to Los Angeles. Told from seven points of view,
“Eve in Hollywood” describes how Eve crafts a new future for
herself—and others—in a noirish tale that takes us through the
movie sets, bungalows, and dive bars of Los Angeles. Written with
his signature wit, humor, and sophistication, Table for Two is
another glittering addition to Towles’s canon of stylish and
transporting fiction.Praise for The Lincoln Highway:",A rollicking
cross-country adventure, rife with unforgettable characters, vivid
scenery and suspensethat will keep readers flying through the
pages.", Time",Elegantly constructed and compulsively readable . .
.hitch onto this delightful tour de force and you'll be pulled
straight through to the end, helpless against the inventive
exuberance of Towles' storytelling.", NPR",Wise and wildly
entertaining . . .Towles goes all in on the kind of episodic,
exuberant narrativehaywire found in myth or Homeric epic.", The New
York Times Book ReviewInstant New York Times bestseller, May 2024
