The Hotelkeeper’s Daughter is a mild-mannered, tender portrait of her protagonist Gilda and her family, the Hamerovs. Before he died, Leo had started the family on a road out of poverty by running summer resorts in the Catskill Mountains north of the city. Gilda’s mother Ida worked hard by Leo’s side and then on her own after his death, gradually upgrading the family enterprise from renting and running seasonal resort hotels in upstate New York to owning much more substantial hotels in New Jersey.
