À propos de cet audio

Paris has long been a storied center of art and culture, and of romance, but in the 1920s its magnetism was especially irresistible. From around the world writers, artists, and composers steamed in, to visit or linger, some to reside. This book - a work of immense erudition spiced with anecdotes and gossip - documents their haunts and habits, their comings and goings, their relationships intimate and artistic.

On a 1-5 rating scale, I give this book a 10. This book should have been subtitled: Who Lived Where in the 20’s in Paris, This was so incredibly well researched, down to street addresses, not only who lived there, but who they were hanging out with, who stayed overnight, who resided in the tenant’s absence, who moved their later… and who lived across the street. For hotels, all the significant guests are listed, along with when they were there, for what reason, where else they have stayed in Paris. All this is laid out as if on a walking tour, down one street, covering one arrondissement at a time. Artists, authors, and creatives of all sorts are included. And, of course, Gertrude Stein knew everyone, so her presence is woven throughout.
I’m not going to do a review with a listening guide on this one, it would be too laborious, but if you are interested in the details, do as I did, and buy the Kindle version too. This is normally where I complain about the lack of a PDF accompaniment (Audible, are you listening?), but I am honestly too excited about this content to care. That, and the fact that it was my lucky day: I found the Kindle on sale for $1.99! The maps and detailed index of people mentioned (yes, a real index!), make it possible to find quotes you wanted to write down while listening (I had a bunch of those).
The first thing I looked for after listening was to see if the author, Arlen Hansen, had written a similar book on the 30’s… but sadly not. Who knows, maybe he’s working on it now?
