Review Quotes: Poignant and painful, Hotel Exile takes the vehicle of a hotel as a means of telling the story of exile. Set in the middle of Paris, before, during and after the Second World War, it reveals a part of this period of history that is often left unexplored.--Thangam Debbonaire, Chair of Judges for Women's Prize for Non-Fiction
