A review by thrilled
Paris, I Love You but You're Bringing Me Down by Rosecrans Baldwin
1.0
baldwin inadvertantly diagnoses the problem with his own book:
"john le carre said the only way to write about a place was after visiting for a day, or after a long life once you'd moved there. but time between these two lengths didn't lend more certainty, just detail."
and that's exactly what this was, a play-by-play descriptathon with very little narrative or spark.
