* A READ WITH JENNA BOOK CLUB PICK MARCH 2025 *

'A gripping, Kafkaesque foray into an all-too-plausible future' JENNIFER EGAN
'So cleverly conceived, so relevant, that everyone should read it and sweat' THE TIMES
'Extraordinary' RUMAAN ALAM
'Absolutely unputdownable' SANDRA NEWMAN

Sara is returning home from a conference abroad when agents from the Risk Assessment Administration pull her aside at the airport. Using data from her dreams, their algorithm has determined that she is at imminent risk of harming her husband. For his safety, she must be transferred to a retention centre, and kept under observation for twenty-one days.

But as Sara arrives to be monitored alongside other dangerous dreamers, she discovers that with every deviation from the facility's strict and ever-shifting rules, their stays can be extended - and that getting home to her family is going to cost much more than just three weeks of good behaviour.

Then, one day, a new resident arrives, disrupting the order of the facility and leading Sara on a collision course with the very companies that have deprived her of her freedom.

The Dream Hotel is a gripping speculative mystery about the seductive dangers of the technologies that are supposed to make our lives easier. As terrifying as it is inventive, it explores how well we can ever truly know those around us - even with the most invasive surveillance systems in place.

Laila Lalami is the author of five books, including The Moor's Account, which won the American Book Award, the Arab American Book Award and the Hurston/Wright Legacy Award, was longlisted for the Booker Prize and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction. She lives in Los Angeles.
