Another Look: “Hotel Talleyrand”

Warning: Artistic inspiration drawn from book titles may vary.



Left: Hotel Talleyrand, by Paul Hyde Bonner (Bantam, 1955); cover illustration by Barye Phillips. Right: Hotel Talleyrand, by Paul Hyde Bonner (Panther, 1959); cover art credited to Charles Binger. Although it’s pretty much forgotten today, Hotel Talleyrand—penned by a former diplomat—enjoyed best-seller status following its hardcover debut in 1953.

A third paperback front for this book can be found here.
