Heartbreak Hotel describes a mature identitarian society set in the latter part of the 21st Century in the Pacific Northwest of North America (New Columbia). It focuses on the administration of the immigration portion of the population policy, by recounting the experiences of a lawyer who takes a job with a commission that decides whether people married or engaged to New Columbians should be permitted to immigrate, and, consequently, nicknamed Heartbreak Hotel. Heartbreak Hotel also considers the process from the perspective of a Cuban applicant and his New Columbian fianc e. Heartbreak Hotel describes how the commission makes its decisions and contains numerous suggestions about how an identarian society should organize itself with respect to religion, electoral suffrage, classes of citizenship, eugenics, and forms of government. Readers may agree or disagree with how New Columbia is organized, but they cannot remain indifferent to the questions raised by Heartbreak Hotel.
