ClAEANTINt IN THE GRAND HOTEL Jenő Rejtő (1905-1943) was ajournalist, proliik author of cabaret skits, and the steadfast practitioner of comic thrillers with unforgettable characters and one-liners that together have become part and parcel of Hungárián literary lore.

Quarantine in the Grand Hotel centres around a mysterious murder in a hotel on the island of Little Lagonda, which is put under quarantine because one of the guests seems to have contracted bubonic plague.

ClAEANTINt IN THE GRAND HOTEL Jenő Rejtő (1905-1943) was ajournalist, proliik author of cabaret skits, and the steadfast practitioner of comic thrillers with unforgettable characters and one-liners that together have become part and parcel of Hungárián literary lore. Delightfully grotesque parodies of the detective novels that had their heyday at the time, Rejtő wrote most of his books in the 1930s under the penname of P. Howard. Quarantine in the Grand Hotel centres around a mysterious murder in a hotel on the island of Little Lagonda, which is put under quarantine because one of the guests seems to have contracted bubonic plague. However, just before the quarantine is declared, the police arrive, and so does a young man, who hides in his pyjamas in the wardrobe of Miss Maud Borckman. It turns out that of the numerous guests under quarantine, any number could have committed the murder the police have come to investigate, including the stranger in pyjamas and Maud, as well as a prince and a janitor, even a police officer. Hilarious mayhem abounds all around as the true identities of the hotel guests come to light, and the stranger in pyjamas finally gets to take a hot bath and lays hold of somé clothes. The latest book by Rejtő in English, The tílonde Hurricane, was published by Corvina in 2003. Vissza
