The <b>perfect </b>novel for your survival bunker . . . Mandel is <b>a consummate, almost profligate world builder.</b> One <b>superbly developed</b> setting gives way to the next, as her attention winds from character to character . . . That Mandel manages to cover so much, so deeply is the <b>abiding mystery</b> of this book

Washington Post

<i>The Glass Hotel</i> is <b>as tightly constructed as a detective fiction</b>, with its mysteries, apparently discrete events leading to revelations, dire consequences . . . <b>a superb performance</b>

Sydney Morning Herald

Lyrical, hypnotic images . . . suspend us in a kind of hallucinatory present where every detail is sharply defined yet queasily unreliable.

- Anna Mundow, <i>Wall Street Journal</i>,

Like all Mandel’s novels, <i>The Glass Hotel </i>is flawlessly constructed... <i>The Glass Hotel</i> declares the world to be as bleak as it is beautiful, just like this novel.

Booklist, starred

Long-anticipated . . . At its heart, this is a ghost story in which every boundary is blurred, from the moral to the physical . . . In luminous prose, Mandel shows how easy it is to become caught in a web of unintended consequences and how disastrous it can be when such fragile bonds shatter under pressure. <b>A strange, subtle, and haunting novel.</b>

Kirkus Reviews, starred

Mandel’s wonderful novel (after <i>Station Eleven</i>) follows a brother and sister as they navigate heartache, loneliness, wealth, corruption, drugs, ghosts, and guilt . . . <b>This ingenious, enthralling novel probes the tenuous yet unbreakable bonds between people and the lasting effects of momentary carelessness</b>
