Fortune Hotel. Twisted Travel Stories

'This collection of travel stories is stuffed with big-hitters ... psychological trauma dominates many tales: Will Self writes about an identity crisis in Vienna; Toby Litt deals with surreal espionage in Berlin; and William Sutcliffe tells a story of applying for work with an Italian institute run by madmen' TIME OUT 'Some of the best travel writing is to be found where fact and fiction blur, something of which Sarah Champion, the editor of Fortune Hotel, takes full advantage ... Fortune Hotel is about real-life characters ... travelling to escape, to rekindle relationships or to forget the past. They seek enlightenment, adventure or oblivion ... the travel book for you this summer' FINANCLAL TIMES 'A hip, diverse collection' MIRROR 'Don't leave for the beach without it' ELLE 'It'll make all those long hours waiting in airport lounges more bearable' FHM The efforts of Emer Martin, Geoff Dyer and William Sutcliffe ... are worth the cover price alone' JOCKEY SLUT
