Touching on topics such as the Jewish resistance, Godard films, and the National Football League, \u003ci\u003eThe History Hotel\u003c\/i\u003e opens the door to both political and personal histories. This collection also introduces us to unforgettable characters—we follow alongside speakers as they drive through Kansas, as they memorise Shakespeare sonnets, and as they rehearse a love affair that went south.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs Wormser’s collection reminds us, the historical circumstances that touch, strengthen, or shatter a life are also key to understanding it. We all live in the \u003ci\u003eHistory Hotel\u003c\/i\u003e, where love, betrayal, hope, and despair go hand in hand. Showing those entangled hands is the work of these poems—poems that are alive to tradition but consistently inventive along the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47432931770604,"sku":"9781933880983","price":33.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781933880983.jpg?v=1774766077","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/the-history-hotel-by-baron-wormser-9781933880983","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
