Pronto una serie de Paramount+, protagonizada por Ewan McGregor BESTSELLER DEL NEW YORK TIMES * RECOMENDADO POR JENNA BUSH EN SU CLUB DE LECTURA DEL TODAY SHOW Y EN SU PODCAST READ WITH JENNA Esta novela excepcional nos habla de nuestra inagotable capacidad para arrostrar los infortunios de la existencia. Mega éxito de ventas, con más de 2 millones de lectores. Pronto una serie de Showtime/Paramount, protagonizada por Ewan McGregor como el conde Alexander Rostov. Condenado a muerte por los bolcheviques en 1922, el conde Aleksandr Ilich Rostov elude su trágico final por un inusitado giro del destino. Gracias a un poema subversivo escrito diez años antes, el comité revolucionario conmuta la pena máxima por un arresto domiciliario inaudito: el aristócrata deberá pasar el resto de sus días en el hotel Metropol, microcosmos de la sociedad rusa y conspicuo exponente del lujo y la decadencia que el nuevo régimen se ha propuesto erradicar. En esta curiosa historia se basa la segunda novela de Amor Towles, que después de recibir innumerables elogios por Normas de cortesía, su ópera prima, se consolida como uno de los escritores norteamericanos más interesantes del momento. Erudito, refinado y caballeroso, Rostov es un cliente asiduo del legendario Metropol, situado a poca distancia del Kremlin y el Bolshói. Sin profesión conocida pese a estar ya en la treintena, se ha dedicado con auténtica pasión a los placeres de la lectura y de la buena mesa.Ahora, en esta nueva y forzada tesitura, irá construyendo una apariencia de normalidad a través de los lazos afectivos con algunos de los variopintos personajes del hotel, lo que le permitirá descubrir los jugosos secretos que guardan sus aposentos. Así, a lo largo de más de tres décadas, el conde verá pasar la vida confinado tras los inmensos ventanales del Metropol mientras en el exterior se desarrolla uno de los períodos más turbulentos del país. Además de mantenerse durante casi cincuenta semanas en las principales listas de éxitos de Estados Unidos y de superar el millón de ejemplares vendidos, Un caballero en Moscú ha obtenido numerosos premios, entre los que destacan el del Libro del Año según The Times y The Sunday Times. Esta novela está escrita con suma elegancia, cálido sentido del humor y un aprecio muy profundo por los grandes clásicos de la literatura rusa. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Soon-to-be a Paramount + series, starring Ewan McGregor NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - READ WITH JENNA BOOK CLUB PICK AS FEATURED ON TODAY - RECOMMENDED ON THE 'READ WITH JENNA' PODCAST- From the New York Times bestselling author of Rules of Civility, a novel about a man who is ordered to spend the rest of his life inside a luxury hotel--a beautifully transporting novel. The mega-bestseller with more than 2 million readers, soon to be a Showtime/Paramount series starring Ewan McGregor as Count Alexander Rostov "Perhaps the ultimate quarantine read . . . A Gentleman in Moscow is about the importance of community; the distance of a kind act; and resilience. It's a manual for getting through the days to come." --O, The Oprah Magazine
In 1922, Count Alexander Rostov is deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, and is sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol, a grand hotel across the street from the Kremlin. Rostov, an indomitable man of erudition and wit, has never worked a day in his life, and must now live in an attic room while some of the most tumultuous decades in Russian history are unfolding outside the hotel's doors. Unexpectedly, his reduced circumstances provide him entry into a much larger world of emotional discovery. Brimming with humor, a glittering cast of characters, and one beautifully rendered scene after another, this singular novel casts a spell as it relates the count's endeavor to gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be a man of purpose.

Needs to be more concise to weed out extraneous crap in your arguments
Format: Paperback
It’s very wordy and could be a lot more concise and be even more effective. “Getting to maybe” is not an exercise in dissertations but finding the right points to create an effective argument. There are better resources out there.

This book made me angry
Format: Paperback
I was excited about this book. Many law-related blogs and forums highly recommended this book. It's a "must read" for law students, they said.
I was angry when I read the introduction. I was angrier when I began reading the chapters. What happened to brevity? Law students are already swamped with course readings. Why write a book intended to be read by law students in such a long and voluminous way? Much of the text can be removed.
"Get to the point," I found myself telling the author as I read page after page. I hated it. It is the rare law student who will pick up this book for its narrative value. The typical law student will pick this book for its value on navigating through law school exams, not for its story-telling. Yet that student will be left disappointed.
I wish the author would have considered writing a "Get to the Point" book, which would serve as a shorter version of 'Getting to Maybe.' Perhaps it is not too late. "Get to the Point" could serve as an alternative or accompanying version, maybe? I ask that the author considers this.

Great overview!
Format: Paperback
Well worth the price for basic overview of Employment Law. Wish there was more information on co-employment risk.
