66 reviewsA seventeen-year-old girl pieces together the mystery of her mother's life and death among the bars and bedrooms of Los Angeles in this dazzling debut novel by Anna Stoddard.
"Ignore the chick-lit-ish title. This story works hard to be worldly-wise and cool, and it sometimes succeeds." - Kirkus Reviews
A raucous, drug-fueled party has taken over a boutique hotel on Venice Beach — it's a memorial for Lily, the now-deceased, free-spirited proprietress of the place. Little do the attendees know that Lily's estranged daughter is among them, and she has just walked off with a suitcase of Lily's belongings.
Abandoned by Lily many years ago, she has come a long way to learn about her mother, and the stolen suitcase — stuffed with clothes, letters, and photographs—contains not only a history of her mother's love life but perhaps also the key to her own identity. As the tough, resourceful narrator tracks down her mother's former husbands, boyfriends, and acquaintances, a risky reenactment of her life begins to unfold. Lily had a knack for falling in love with the wrong people, and one man, a fashion photographer turned paparazzo, has begun to work his sinuous charms on the young woman.
"A sensitively drawn portrait of a troubled young woman, [Stothard's narrator] is convincing…An elegant noirish mystery…This touching, convoluted love story is shot through with a distinctive talent." - The Independent (UK)
Told with high style and noirish flare, Anna Stothard's The Pink Hotel is a powerfully evocative debut novel about wish fulfilment, reckless impulse, and how we discover ourselves.
