A GENTLEMAN IN MOSCOW by Amor Towles
In 1922, Count Alexander Rostov is deemed an unrepentant aristocrat and sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol, a grand hotel across the street from the Kremlin. Rostov, an indomitable man of erudition and wit, must now live in an attic room while some of the most tumultuous decades in Russian history are unfolding. His reduced circumstances provide him entry into a much larger world of emotional discovery.
