The Hotel Egypt (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781963908084)

Following the breakup of his marriage and the loss of a child, Ty Rossberg books himself a suite at the wrong hotel. There he meets his dream girl, Ellory Allen, a parking lot heiress who's on the run. Together, Ellory and Ty will conquer the world. But when they meet a laid-back prophet in the Olympic mountains, their dream life takes a nightmarish turn.

The Hotel Egypt is a dizzying contemporary satire, a meditation on masculinity and femininity, motherhood and fatherhood, and post-Jewish American identity, all of it brought together by plot twists constantly risking absurdity. Tender, merciless and compassionate, this blackly funny novel asks us to discuss why we build our own prisons, and why we keep trying to find a way out.
