Once of the clandestine haunt of priests, politicians and prostitutes, Dublin's legendary Finbar's Hotel has undergone a transformation to keep pace with that city's reputation as the night life capital of Europe. Gone are the cubbyholes where deals were brokered and indiscretions covered up. Now, a magnificent new edifice of white leather and chic chrome welcomes the Celtic Tiger elite, even if their motives and actions are frequently as bizarre, comic, surreptitious and surprising as anything seen there before.
Taking up the challenge thrown down by the seven authors of the bestselling novel, 'Finbar's Hotel,' and once again being shown to their suites and offered room-service by the editor, Dermot Bolger, seven of Ireland's most accomplished women writers have crafted between them this delightfully entertaining novel that delves into the dark corners of the human condition as seen through one vibrant night in the life of a hotel.
'Ladies Night at Finbar's Hotel' is both a hilariously comic and often very tender vision of an ever-changing city. It is also a literary "whodunnit" where the authorship of each individual chapter is left for readers to discover . . .
