Publisher's summary

Your personal space is a sanctuary in this beguiling hotel we know only as The Grand, where we are swept away on a course that pulsates like jazz music or paint on canvas. Writing poetry on the wallpaper in his room as a form of therapy, taking long walks, and even sleeping naked in the garden, we journey with this poet in metaphor and subconscious rhythms in a mysterious residence of beauty, while something dangerous and unstable lurks in the world outside. We are able to relate to this space of wanting harmony, loneliness, and uncertainty.

Captivating in it's poetic style, Calloway is profound with his novella in his minimalist approach. Multicolored with intrigue and romance, our poet paints with great amounts of affection. Just as some guests of The Grand never want to leave, you may find yourself feeling the same.

1,000 words are worth the picture

I was pulled in by the characters, the soft and sensual writing style, and the story playing out for the reader. A.C. has taken his artistic talent and created a new painting for his collection, this one founded in words. I loved the descriptive language as the moments played out in my mind. Well done, well worth the listen, and well written.

It will draw you in and make you swoon!

Impressionist paintings, certain pieces of music, walking in nature during a gentle rain... these have the same effect on me as A.C. Calloway's writing. I have now listened to two works by this talented writer and artist, and am looking forward to more! I have rarely been swept away to a place so far outside (or perhaps inside) myself via an audiobook.

The reader was well-chosen. A very lush, romantic piece. Masterfully done! Looking forward to more!
