An American born in Paris at the turn of the last century, Julian Green takes
the reader on an imaginative stroll around the French capital, revealing its
secret stairways, courtyards, and alleys. From haunted visions of Notre Dame to
memories of the old Trocadero, Green describes strange and little-known
locations as well as the great sights. A special bilingual edition illustrated
with Green´s own photographs, this is a book to treasure, containing the hidden
delights of Paris in an intimate literary portrait. Julian Green published over
70 books in France and was a member of both the Acadmie Franaise and the
American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
