Items related to Paris, Paris: A Journey into the City of Light
Synopsis
Like all great cities and yet unlike any other Paris is alive and fluttering, it changes with the light, buffeted by Seine-basin breezes. This place called Paris is at once the imaginary land of literature and film, a distant view through shifting, misty lenses, and a vibrant contemporary city where a kaleidoscope of millions seems bent on the grand conspiracy of enjoying life. Paris, Paris: Journey into the City of Light paints a portrait in thirty perennial essays of the world’s favorite city.

Review
"Lifting the curtain (in some cases before the people inside expect it) is very much what this book is about..." -- John Baxter, Alliance Francaise Magazine, October 2005
From the Publisher
Paris, Paris is that rare object nowadays: a book of literate travel essays illustrated with striking B&W photographs.
Known for her photography work in the books of Sophia Loren, Marcella Hazan, Anne Willan and many other celebrities and cooks, Alison Harris is also a passionate chronicler in B&W of Paris’ streets. As Diane Johnson sees it, "Paris must be the most photographed place in the world, from Doisneau to Cartier-Bresson. These beautiful studies by Alison Harris extend that literature with a powerful formal talent. Her camera’s loving dissection of details that the busy traveler might not notice for himself, makes of this book a splendid object in itself, a sort of bibliophilic gem."
