"Set in the author's ancestral Tyrol. Bemelmans can accommodate in one
story the life of the honest people that he loves and the antics of the
hotel crowd, both above stairs and below... It is the happy combination
of the touching and the absurd that gives this novel, even more than his
others, its special Bemelmans flavor."--Fantastic Fiction.
