"You should put Grand Hotel Europa by Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer on the shelf next to Europe books by Thomas Mann and Harry Mulisch. Rarely have we read a novel that ingeniously links a tragic but beautiful love story with serious, but never dull, often witty reflections on the phenomenon that is Europe. […] Grand Hotel Europa is a love letter to an old beloved, a dead-tired but stunning continent." - De Limburger

Ilja Leonard Pfeijffer is an acclaimed Dutch poet and novelist, as well as polemicist and classical scholar. He moved permanently to Genoa, Italy, in 2008.
