00:00And from a contemporary author, we have Hôtel du Lac, a witty and perceptive story from Anita Bruckner,
00:06one of the finest novelists of our time.
00:09Meet Edith Hope, writer of romance novels.
00:12She's been banished to Hôtel du Lac due to a certain breach of etiquette.
00:18Would you take me on a little further, please? I've changed my mind.
00:22Now, Edith, you know as well as I do, a few weeks away and everyone will have forgotten
00:31all about that unfortunate business.
00:33Other out-of-season guests include an elegant duchess, a vibrant mother and daughter,
00:40a well-adjusted aristocrat, and a man seeking romance.
00:44There's not love you need. It's marriage.
00:49But for Edith, the hotel proves to be a place to learn about life and love.
00:54Hôtel du Lac. It's halfway between here and the imagination.
