"The Glass Hotel" is an extraordinary novel about the modern world, living at crazy technological speeds, entwined with an intricate web of financial flows, stock quotes and shadow schemes. Mandel paints it as illusory as the elegant bulk of an elite hotel in the Canadian wilderness, and cruel as the inscription written on the panoramic window of its glittering lobby: "Why don't you eat broken glass?" Is it intended for Vincent, a mysterious young girl, in whose past there is also a glass with an inscription, and soon there will be more serious secrets? Or maybe it is about Paul, Vincent's brother, who is dragged down by unspoken guilt and drug addiction? Or is the addressee Jonathan Alkaitis, the mysterious owner of the hotel and the head of an unusually profitable investment fund, who has so much money and power in his hands?
The simulation here turns out to be not only money, but also relationships, achievements and even desires. But the omnipresent ghosts seem more real than anything else and bring to the surface the only truth - the burden of pain, guilt and memory, which will ultimately determine the fate of the heroes and their choice.
