Three Bedrooms in Manhattan
A compulsive novel from one of the most influential writers of the twentieth century.
A recently divorced actor and a no less lonely woman meet by chance in a New York diner. The city—its bars, its cheap motels, and its rented rooms—becomes the cinematic setting of the couple's escalating and mysterious relationship. A move against desperation and drift, their affair nevertheless glows with an urgent and compulsive romance.
Georges Simenon was one of the most popular twentieth-century novelists. Three Bedrooms in Manhattan—closely based on the story of his own meeting with his second wife—is his most passionate and revealing work.
