Pam asked Amor Towles:

Do you consider yourself a gentleman?

Christa Van
Christa Van asked Amor Towles:

Thanks for your great books, I'm a librarian and recommend them widely (and appropriately). Thanks for leaving investment banking! Do you ever miss it? Will we see a future book in a banking setting?

Jessica Crabtree
Jessica Crabtree asked Amor Towles:

Are there anymore updates on a film?? I am in love with this book.

Cynthia
Cynthia asked Amor Towles:

I completely agree! The news is cutting off my oxygen. So I have returned to the Metropol for the 5th time. Again I am drenched in euphoria! Is there a man such as Alexander? Reflecting on your presentation at National Art's Club in 2017, I am convinced that it is you! If nothing else you have created an archetype that we all can strive to emulate! Thanks for this gem! You are saving me from despair!
