run an infinite hotel for all the integers. The story progresses through the triangular method for the rationals. In Will Wiles's novel The Way Inn, about an infinitely large motel, the villain's name is Hilbert. In Reginald Hill's novel "The Stranger House" the character Sam refers to the Hilbert Hotel paradox. The short story by Naum Ya. Vilenkin The Extraordinary Hotel (often erroneously attributed to Stanislaw Lem) shows the way in which Hilbert's Grand Hotel may be reshuffled when infinite new hosts arrive. The comic book saga The Tempest from the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen series by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill shows a villain called Infinity. In the story it is suggested that the villain goes to the hotel based on Hilbert's paradox. Georg Cantor is mentioned as well. See also References External links Hilbert infinite hotel. M.
