À propos de cet audio
Shortlisted for The Scotiabank Giller Prize
A Time Magazine Must Read Book of 2020
A Globe and Mail Top 100 Book of the Year
Number One National Best Seller
New York Times Best Seller
From the award-winning author of Station Eleven, a captivating novel of money, beauty, white-collar crime, ghosts, and moral compromise in which a woman disappears from a container ship off the coast of Mauritania and a massive Ponzi scheme implodes in New York, dragging countless fortunes with it.
Vincent is a bartender at the Hotel Caiette, a five-star glass-and-cedar palace on the northernmost tip of Vancouver Island. New York financier Jonathan Alkaitis owns the hotel. When he passes Vincent his card with a tip, it’s the beginning of their life together. That same day, a hooded figure scrawls a note on the windowed wall of the hotel: “Why don’t you swallow broken glass.” Leon Prevant, a shipping executive for a company called Neptune-Avramidis, sees the note from the hotel bar and is shaken to his core. Thirteen years later, Vincent mysteriously disappears from the deck of a Neptune-Avramidis ship.
Weaving together the lives of these characters, The Glass Hotel moves between the ship, the skyscrapers of Manhattan, and the wilderness of remote British Columbia, painting a breathtaking picture of greed and guilt, fantasy and delusion, art and the ghosts of our pasts.

The British-born Punjabi Shergill sisters Rajni, Jezmeen, and Shirnia were never close and barely got along growing up and now have grown even further apart as adults. Rajni, a school principal, is a stickler for order. Jezmeen, a 30-year-old struggling actress, fears her big break may never come. Shirina, the peacemaking "good" sister, married into wealth and enjoys a picture-perfect life. On her deathbed, their mother voices one last wish: that her daughters will make a pilgrimage together to the Golden Temple in Amritsar to carry out her final rites.

Histoire4.5 out of 5 stars 187
When Marshall McEwan left his hometown at age 18, he vowed never to return. The trauma that drove him away ultimately spurred him to become one of the most successful journalists in Washington DC. But just as the political chaos in the nation’s capital lifts him to new heights, Marshall is forced to return home in spite of his boyhood vow. His father is dying, his mother is struggling to keep the family newspaper from failing, and the town is in the midst of an economic rebirth that might be built upon crimes that reach into the state capitol - and perhaps even to Washington.

character switcheroo
Like Station 11, author pulls a switcheroo where the characters in first half of book are not main characters in second half. Didn't care much about them. Author should tighten it up, focus on main arc.

Could not engage fully
Interesting characters and very good writing, but I could not seem to engage with any of them. I wanted more from each, and when I thought that I was close, I wasn’t. Will try another book by this author.

gripping
The second book by this author I have loved. I love that there is similarities between the two of them but that the stories are completely different. If you like stories with lots of parallel and intertwined storylines, you will enjoy this book. If you are Canadian, you will appreciate the imagry and familiarity of the descriptions of our two largest cities. Great characters, great book. Can't wait for the next.

Disjointed
Usually enjoy multiple story lines that weave a complex tapestry. However, in this book, many of those storylines are weaving a completely disjointed whole. The characters have ties but they are loose for the most part. What is the point of Paul? his appearances do nothing for the book other than waste pages. You feel that with him being given pages at the beginning that he would be much more prominent.
On the whole, the storyline and characters were dull for lack of a better word. The narration is not very believable or energetic. The subject matter did little to engage this reader. Had high hopes once we got to the Glass Hotel on the beautiful North Island, but it was short-lived.
Not my cup of tea.

Loved the Narrator!… the story was ok
Overall I liked the book. I LOVED “station eleven”. But this one is just a like.
This story had a lot of ins and outs, ups and downs, and one really has to pay attention to characters and connections. It’s not always clear of the purpose, but I think upon reflection it may be that the characters connect to each other just to add depth to one another…
I heard someone describe this book as “sprawling” and it was- like it could have been a series instead of a single winding story.
Overall, still good. The narration is well done also! Dylan Moore was fantastic!!

My favorite
My favorite story by the author and I’m still inhabited by Station Eleven. Loved Port Hardy’s setting. Loved the way the story is told, a little backward, a little ghostly. Loved the author’s style, the inclusion of art. Loved the narration! I binge the end to know hw the story unfold.
