What is The White Hotel about?

D.M. Thomas’ modern classic of enduring emotional power was heralded by Salman Rushdie as a novel of "blazing imagination and intellectual thought"."I quickly came to feel that I had found that book, that mythical book, that would explain us to ourselves." - Leslie Epstein, New York TimesIt is a dream of electrifying eroticism and inexplicable violence, recounted by a young woman to her analyst, Sigmund Freud. It is a horrifying yet restrained narrative of the Holocaust. It is a searing vision of the wounds of our century and an attempt to heal them. Interweaving poetry and case history, fantasy and historical truth-telling, The White Hotel attempts nothing less than to reconcile the notion of individual destiny with that of historical fate."Astonishing... A forthright sensuality mixed with a fine historical feeling for the nightmare moments in modern history, a dreamlike fluidity and quickness." - John UpdikeD. M. Thomas is a poet and novelist, and his 1981 novel The White Hotel is considered a modern classic. His acclaimed novel The White Hotel has been translated into over 30 languages. Thomas is also renowned as a translator of Pushkin and Anna Akhmatova.
