The characters grapple with the decline of their noble status while encountering the American way of life, ultimately revealing the ridiculousness of social hierarchies.With its clever prose and engaging narrative, The Hohenzollerns in America remains a delightful read that invites reflection on identity, class, and the quirks of human nature, all while providing ample laughter.
