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!

Thanks, Cynthia.
But the Count is definitely not me!

Amor Towles:
That's wonderful. I am often struck by the jewels that research unearths while writing historical fiction. It's surprising how actual events known and unknown reflect a greater truth. Perhaps it's the mythical Universal Mind? I also believe in Faulkner's saying that stories happen to those who can tell them, and you tell them well. I'll carry the Triumvirate with me for many years and look forward to your next.
