Paris

Paris

Moving beyond the postcard views of Paris that typically define the city of lights , this volume offers a contemporary photographic tour that captures the spirit of today s Paris. There are the monuments, of course.

But there are also the streets, gardens, hotels, galleries, interiors, theaters, cafes.... each plays a role in this popular, lively, and historically chic city . Punctuated by an eclectic selection of quotes and anecdotes from such astute Parisian observers as Colette, Jean Cocteau, Henry Miller and Alain Ducasse, PARIS conjures up the mood and spirit that animates each quarter and turns each and every reader into a true Parisian.
