At our next meeting, we'll be discussing the second section of A Gentleman in Moscow, up to page 167. We'll discuss the new friends and allies Count Rostov makes in the hotel where he is under house arrest, his secret rooms, internal and external, and how though limited to the hotel, he expands his horizons. We'll meet Anna, the actress who becomes dear to him, and discuss his 'celebration' with his friend Mischka, of the first year of his confinement. We'll also continue to talk a little history.
