Product details
1919: Major Brendan Archer, having been discharged from the English army after the end of World War I, travels to the east coast of Ireland to marry his fiancée. However, the reunion with the daughter of the owner of the Majestic Hotel turns out to be completely different from what he had hoped, especially since his fiancée soon passes away. In the meantime, the Major has already become entangled with the remaining group of cats, eccentric servants, and residents, and he is increasingly drawn into the decline of the vast former grand hotel and its boisterous owner, Edward Spencer. This brilliant narrative, infused with absurd humor, is set against the backdrop of Ireland's pivotal years leading up to the partition of the country. The endless facets of this centuries-old conflict are reflected in the various perspectives of the vividly drawn characters. Posthumously awarded the Man Booker Prize, German readers now have the opportunity to encounter a consummate stylist and great storyteller.
