On 21 June 1922, Count Alexander Rostov - recipient of the Order of Saint Andrew, member of the Jockey Club, Master of the Hunt - is escorted out of the Kremlin, across Red Square and through the elegant revolving doors of the Hotel Metropol.

Deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, the Count has been sentenced to house arrest indefinitely. But instead of his usual suite, he must now live in an attic room while Russia undergoes decades of tumultuous upheaval.

Can a life without luxury be the richest of all?

Really enjoyed the story and narration, probably the best audiobook I have had the pleasure of listening to.

I’m actually quite sad it’s finished, I will miss the Count and his friends.

Highly recommended!!!

A wonderfully written story which covered so many elements of life though nearly all based in one place. Had me engrossed for hours at a time x Also created great intrigue for me to learn about Russian history & I ended up taking notes of things I want to find out more about x Narration was lovely all the way through from the English to Russian to Italian etc x Excellent, a book I will definitely listen to again with pleasure xx

Created a want for me to learn more x
