From Voltaire to Verlaine and from Hugo to Hemingway, these are the Paris locations that have influenced modern literature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book is an elegant photographic stroll around the bookshops, famous literary restaurants and storied streets of Europe\u2019s favourite tourist destination.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Literary Landscapes: Paris takes this major European city and with picture perfect photography, compiles an album of memorable views linked to the words of Parisian authors, or writers who made Paris their home. It looks at places where books were written, discussed over dinner, and where ultimately the books are sold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

There are the theatres of Moli\u00e8re, Dumas and Beaumarchais along with the incredible Palais Garnier opera house and the legend of Le Fantome by Gaston Leroux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are the revered bookshops of the Latin Quarter including the idiosyncratic Shakespeare & Co.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are the classic grand structures referenced in Victor Hugo novels (and still there) or the mean streets of George Orwell\u2019s Down and Out in Paris.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

There are the famous cafes where authors gathered and wrote, or where artists and philosophers argued: Les Deux Magots, Caf\u00e9 de Flore, Le Procope, La Closerie des Lilas, Prunier, Le D\u00f4me, La Rotonde and Le Select.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are the bouquinistes ranged in their green booths along the Seine, as once tended by Jean Genet. And there is the classic expatriate Paris of Joyce, Stein, Wilde, Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald and the Beat poets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Literary Landscapes: Paris takes readers on an exclusive cultural journey, introduced by one of the city\u2019s most engaging tourist guides.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Part travelogue, part cultural history and part inside guide to ‘hidden’ Paris, Sandrine’s Paris is lavishly illustrated with over 100 beautiful images that capture the magic of the City of Lights.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Paris. The most romantic city in the world, and a city with an amazingly rich cultural history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

From the Renaissance to the French Revolution, from the construction of the Eiffel Tower to Mitterrand’s grands projets, Paris has borne witness to extraordinary people and events over the centuries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

And who better to explore the French capital’s cultural past than Sandrine Voillet. Art historian, cultural commentator, Parisian, she’s as chic and elegant as the city she adores. In this fascinating and highly original portrait of Paris, Sandrine shares her passion for a city indelibly marked by change and revolution. Travelling through 400 years of cultural history, Sandrine introduces the people and events that have shaped Paris into the breathtaking spectacle we see today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
