Love Hotel (Paperback)
A novel about a mysterious love triangle and the almost mythological power—and potentially lethal danger—of eros.
Working on behalf of a cunning and mysterious couple, a woman embarks on a haunting search for a stranger (a child? somebody’s lover? a ghost?) and undertakes a perplexing, dangerous, deeply layered, and apparently timeless journey originating on a secluded country estate and leading deep into the erotic center of a transient location in the city. Love Hotel explores a heartbreaking and nightmarish world of unrelenting excess, impossible convergences, undeniable urges, and inexorable loss. Jane Unrue’s writing, beautifully cunning and mysterious itself, twists and turns and lures the reader on with a heightened charged erotic magnetism of its own.
Jane Unrue, born in Nevada, now lives in Boston and teaches at Harvard.
Quiet, masterful, and utterly intriguing.
