Review

"[M]aking the subject of writers in Paris--in particular, American writers--a fresh literary experience rather than an old chestnut is exactly what the various authors in the Library of America's marvelous new anthology manage to do."

Publisher's note

An anthology of American writers who found inspiration, good living, pleasure, and refuge in Paris includes the work of Sherwood Anderson, Hart Crane, Theodore Dreiser, Ann Morrow Lindbergh, Henry Miller, Mark Twain, Edith Wharton, Ernest Hemingway, James Baldwin, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and many, many others.

Annotation

This selection of 70 writers on Paris ranges from Thomas Jefferson and Ralph Waldo Emerson to M. F. K. Fisher and James Thurber to Jack Kerouac and Dawn Powell. It also includes such unexpected delights as Cole Porter's song lyrics, the memoirs of jazzman Sidney Bechet, and Diana Vreeland on the subject of Chanel.
