A Charming, Moving, Thrilling Book
The bones of the story are straightforward. The main protagonist is an aristocrat who is placed under house arrest post revolution by the new rulers of Russia. He is living in a hotel in Moscow and from this tolerable confinement he reflects on his life and witnesses the massive social and political changes that are happening in Russia The rise of Stalin and the purges and terror that follow, the death of Stalin and finally the election and rule of Kruschev. He tolerates and even thrives in this situation because he is an intelligent, cultivated and humane person and forms bonds and friendship and even finds love within this small yet fascinating milieu. You can read this as a parable or you can simply delight in the brilliant stories as they unfold in the intriguing world of his home ... The bones of the story are straightforward.

I love its optimism, its humanity, its humour and its thrilling plot. Buy it, read it enjoy it, read it again then give to someone that you care about.

Good story in essence
There is no doubt that this is a good story in essence, but I found the nature of the narrative irritating and precious, spattered with bits of fact which seem to have been included to show how well read and clever the author is. It is a cosy and 'feel good' book, so basically a light read, with the momentous events of the time kept well in the background.

Delightful, charming, a joy to read.
I have bought 9 copies of this book for friends. It is the most gentle, amusing, delightful book I have ever read. The author is contactable and charming. I will continue to buy copies for friends, particularly those going through a difficult time. I love it.

Sublime list of classical and artistic convergence
Towles has a remarkable knowledge of Russian history and has written a wonderful compendium of events in and around Moscow during the early part of the 20th century. His use of the vernacular and the English language is wonderful.

In my top 5
I read constantly, it is rare that I find a book this good. Thoroughly entertaining consideration of both sides of the Russian Revolution. The main character is so funny and likeable. This really uplifted me regarding the human spirit and utter futility of the political climate. The whiff of Fawlty Towers had me laughing out loud.
