Dear Amor, I finished A Gentleman in Moscow over the break and it has quickly become one of my all-time favorites! As such, I'm absolutely stoked for the Apple TV miniseries with Kenneth Branagh. Has COVID-19 impacted its prospective release? When can we expect to see that air, if you're able to share?

I'm afraid the wheels are turning very slowly for the A GENTLEMAN IN MOSCOW series. They are still trying to develop the scripts and are far from shooting.

Amor Towles:
Your writing and humorous comparisons are brilliant, and I appreciate your many references to art and literature. Though I haven't read all the books and am not familiar with some of the art pieces, I was compelled to look them up and learn a bit. Using a tablet made it easy to switch between the internet and ROC. Is there a new AT book is in the works? Also loved A Gentleman in Moscow.

Hello Amor, Rules of Civility was so wonderful. I know you wanted to write a novel about how meeting a single person can change your entire life, as your New York friend did for yours. Will your upcoming book capture a theme from your life as well? Many thanks, Stephanie

Amor Towles:
LOVED A Gentleman in Moscow. Re-reading it now, savoring it. Wondering, what is the significance, if any, of the color yellow? Yellow is everywhere. Nina's dresses; the Christmas present; The Yellow Room at the Boyarsky; the yellow hat the girl was wearing on p.230. I read on the internet that yellow is used to evoke Crime and Punishment, in which Dostoyevsky uses that color to symbolize imprisonment. Is this true?
