Nichole asked Amor Towles:

Hi, I just have a quick question about if and when 'Gentleman in Moscow' will be released in paperback in the U.S.? We are wanting it for our book club but it has to be paperback for us to be able to carry it in our store. Thank you for your time!

Elena
Elena asked Amor Towles:

You were kind enough to answer one of my questions, thank you. Just FYI would you be interested in my presumptuous "review" of your delightful book evoking the atmosphere of the Metropol Hotel? https://www.academia.edu/32804842/Genealogy_of_Amor_Towles_Gentleman_in_Moscow.docx My review of Grand Budapest Hotel was published in the American Scholar, text also on Academia.com

Kimberly Park
Kimberly Park asked Amor Towles:

Why do authors go back and write books before the first book of the series? People like John Flanagan does it but I don't understand why.
