“Hotel” by Arthur Haley

Hello! Today I want to tell you about a wonderful book of a famous author.

It is Hotel by Arthur Haley.

Arthur Haley

Arthur Haley is a British — Canadian novelist who has created different novels in the production (industrial) novel genre. During his life, he wrote 11 books.

In each of his novels, there are various financial or technical details, in addition to the dramatic relationships between the characters, accessible language provides information about how a particular device or system functions and how they affect society and its individuals. The novels show in detail the genesis of a system, its development, and the inevitable problems that eventually lead to a crisis, which is happily resolved by the end of the novel. Haley spent about a year working on the story, about six months making notes and drafts, and as a result, about a year and a half writing the book itself. Such hard work (for example, reading 27 books about the hotel business for Hotel) — adds to his works visible to readers realism. Many of Arthur Haley’s books became bestsellers on the New York Times list. Many works were adapted into movies, and a TV series was made based on Hotel.

Hotel

The action takes place in the twentieth century in the United States in New Orleans. The author tells in detail about the huge hotel “St. Gregory”. The novel, like other works of this author, is characterized by a high concentration of events, dynamism and sharpness. The action takes place within five days, Monday to Friday. The hotel is the main character of the novel, and the fate of many people are developed against its background. A whole chunk of life unfolds before the reader. It tells in detail about the everyday life of the hotel, its employees, their work, the functioning of the hotel, its rooms, utility rooms, and general structure.

The book can be called a textbook of hotel business. We are used to that textbooks are rarely interesting. But that’s not the case with Haley. In his textbook such intricacies of the plot, such passions are boiling, such intrigues are maturing that you want to read and read. In addition to the fact that it is just very interesting, it is also useful, because we study tourism, and for those who want to link their career with the hotel business, this work will be very informative.

“We’ll never know how many people didn’t complain, but they won’t come here again.” This phrase of one of the employees of the hotel “St. Gregory” is key to understanding the hotel business — says A. Haley.

Hotel is the amazing work written in great language, very stylish, very interesting, bright, and smart. Such books will never be outdated and will always be relevant.

I I advise everyone to read this book!
