Description

New York: Random House, 1942. First Edition, First Printing. With a New York Herald Tribune clipping laid-in, dated April 26, 1942 reviewing this book. Decorative endpapers. Near fine copy with just a trace of rubbing to the lettering at the spine without dust jacket. Elliot Paul was one of the noted American Paris expatriates of the 1920s, co-editor of Transition magazine and knew all the notables of the period. Of the flowering of writing that came out of 1920s Paris, Paul is the only American to write a lengthy memoir of what it was like to interact and immerse oneself in the people of his Paris neighborhood. This book is basically the story of the lives of the people of the street on which he lived, the Rue de la Huchette. Paul lived there for the better part of 18 years, until the Nazi occupation of France prevented his return. A genuine classic.
