The Glass Hotel
In “The Glass Hotel,” Emily St. John Mandel weaves a haunting tale of greed, ghosts, and interconnected lives. From the glittering heights of Manhattan to a remote Canadian island, we follow Vincent, a bartender caught in the web of a massive Ponzi scheme. Mandel’s prose shimmers like the glass of the hotel itself, reflecting the fragility of our modern world. As I turned each page, I found myself captivated by the characters’ choices and their unforeseen consequences. A mesmerizing exploration of memory, identity, and the ripple effects of our actions.
