Grand Hotel

Grand Hotel

Vicki Baum

Veliki hotel u centru Berlina 1920-ih služi kao mikrokosmos modernog sveta u proslavljenom romanu Viki Baum, bestseleru iz Vajmarskog doba koji i danas zadržava svu svoju polet i sjaj.

Među gostima hotela je i doktor Oternšlag, veteran Prvog svetskog rata čije je lice prepolovila granata. Zatim tu je Grusinskaia, sjajna balerina koja sada vodi izgubljenu bitku ne toliko protiv starosti koliko protiv svog straha od njih, koja može, ali ne mora biti stvorena za Gaigerna, lukavog profesionalnog lopova. Pojavljuje se i gospodin Prejsing, direktor porodične firme, koja nije tako prosperitetna kao što se čini, koji nikada ne bi ni zamislio da je u Berlin došao i Kringlajn, njegov podređeni, plašljivi sitni činovnik kojeg je godinama maltretirao, odlučan da konačno živi sada kada je dobio medicinsku smrtnu kaznu. Svi ovi likovi i više, sa svim svojim tajnama i težnjama, okupljaju se i oživljavaju na stranicama Baumovog ukusnog i uznemirujućeg remek-dela.
