The book provides a detailed guide to the city of Paris, offering insights into both its daytime charm and nighttime allure. The author, Julie de Marguerittes, does a fantastic job of painting a vivid picture of the city through her engaging writing style. She covers a wide range of topics including iconic landmarks, hidden gems, local cuisine, and nightlife hotspots. Additionally, the book contains beautiful illustrations and practical tips for navigating the city, making it a valuable resource for both tourists and locals alike. Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to explore Paris in a more in-depth and authentic way.Book Description: Paris has been often described, by travelers, by artists, by savants, by friends and by enemies, yet it was after reading most of the works descriptive of Paris that I felt how much there was still to be written, if not about Paris, at least about the Parisians.
