A review by exurbanis
A Passion for Paris: Romanticism and Romance in the City of Light by David Downie
4.0
(Nonfiction, History, Travel, Bibliophilic)
What a lovely book to take if we ever moved to Paris and had time to explore in depth! The geography and history of ‘literary celebrities’, especially of the Grand Epoch, are covered in rich detail.
As a book for a casual reader, it was not so interesting.
I received my ecopy from NetGalley. This did not affect my review.
3½ stars
