Millions of Amor Towles fans are in for a treat as he shares some of
his shorter fiction: six stories based in New York City and a novella
set in Golden Age Hollywood.
The New York stories, most of which take place around the year 2000,
consider the fateful consequences that can spring from brief encounters
and the delicate mechanics of compromise that operate at the heart of
modern marriages.
In Towles’s novel Rules of Civility, the indomitable Evelyn Ross leaves
New York City in September 1938 with the intention of returning home to
Indiana. But as her train pulls into Chicago, where her parents are
waiting, she instead extends her ticket to Los Angeles. Told from seven
points of view, “Eve in Hollywood” describes how Eve crafts a new
future for herself—and others—in a noirish tale that takes us through
the movie sets, bungalows, and dive bars of Los Angeles.
Written with his signature wit, humor, and sophistication, Table for
Two is another glittering addition to Towles’s canon of stylish and
transporting fiction.
