The Glass Hotel. Signed by Emily St. John Mandel. First Edition, First Printing. Knopf. New York, 2020.

Emily St. John Mandel is a Canadian novelist whose works have proven both critically and commercially successful over the past decade. She began publishing novels in the late 2000s, developing a dedicated readership and some critical attention. Yet her fourth novel, Station Eleven, catapulted Mandel to the forefront of contemporary literature. It was nominated for the National Book Award and won the Arthur C. Clarke Award for best Science Fiction Novel. Then in 2020, she published this volume: The Glass Hotel. It is a literary thriller of high acclaim. Like Mandel’s previous works, The Glass Hotel somehow manages to depict numerous social strata and disparate scenes into a cohesive, character-driven narrative without missing a mark. It was shortlisted for the Giller Prize and became a bestseller.

This first edition, first printing is signed by Mandel on the title page. It is in fine condition. In the original cloth, fine. Text block fine. In the original dust jacket, fine.
