Three bedrooms in Manhattan
Simenon, Georges, 1903-19892020
Book
A recently divorced actor and a no less lonely woman meet by chance in a New York diner. The city - its bars, its cheap motels and its rented rooms - becomes the cinematic setting of the couple's escalating and mysterious relationship. A move against desperation and drift, their affair nevertheless glows with an urgent and compulsive romance. 'Three Bedrooms in Manhattan' - closely based on the story of his own meeting with his second wife - is Simenon's most passionate and revealing work.
