A vibrant, enchanting tour of the Seine from longtime New York Times foreign correspondent and best-selling author Elaine Sciolino. Elaine Sciolino came to Paris as a young foreign correspondent and was seduced by a river. In The Seine, she tells the story of that river from its source on a remote plateau of Burgundy to the wide estuary where its waters meet the sea, and the cities, tributaries, islands, ports, and bridges in between. Sciolino explores the Seine through its rich history and lively characters: a bargewoman, a riverbank bookseller, a houseboat dweller, a famous cinematographer known for capturing the river’s light. She discovers the story of Sequana—the Gallo-Roman healing goddess who gave the Seine its name—and follows the river through Paris, where it determined the city’s destiny and now snakes through all aspects of daily life. She patrols with river police, rows with a restorer of antique boats, sips champagne at a vineyard along the river, and even dares to go for a swim. She finds the Seine in art, literature, music, and movies from Renoir and Les Misérables to Puccini and La La Land. Along the way, she reveals how the river that created Paris has touched her own life. A powerful afterword tells the dramatic story of how water from the depths of the Seine saved Notre-Dame from destruction during the devastating fire in April 2019. A “storyteller at heart” (June Sawyers, Chicago Tribune) with a “sumptuous eye for detail” (Sinclair McKay, Daily Telegraph), Sciolino braids memoir, travelogue, and history through the Seine’s winding route. The Seine offers a love letter to Paris and the most romantic river in the world, and invites readers to explore its magic for themselves.

Claude Monet est le passager infatigable de la vallée de la Seine. Il est le voyageur moderne, qui prend le train ou le bateau, regarde autour de lui et s'intéresse aux changements. " Monet bien sûr, celui d'Impression, soleil levant, qui donna pour toujours les contours estompés d'une activité portuaire à une façon nouvelle de sentir le monde, de diluer le regard dans la lumière ". comme l'écrit Philippe Delerm dans cet ouvrage. Ce livre est un cheminement articulé autour d'une dizaine d'oeuvres de Claude Monet présentant les activités fluviales, maritimes et portuaires au fil de la Seine. Ces oeuvres mondialement connues, devenues des icônes, sont mises en perspective à travers d'autres regards, ceux de photographes qui, eux aussi, ont été inspirés par ces sujets. Succède alors une véritable promenade visuelle de Paris au Havre à travers plus d'une centaine de photographies de Gustave Le Gray. Henri Cartier - Bresson. Robert Capa, André Kertész, Marcel Bovis, François Kollar, René - Jacques, Roger Parry, Jean Gaumy. John Davies et bien d'autres, comme ces clichés inédits des collections des ports de Paris. de Rouen et du Havre. Cette métamorphose jusqu'à nos jours se lit autant dans le paysage et dans les métiers que dans les pratiques sociales et le rapport à l'eau. à la Seine, à la mer, dont le livre offre des clés de compréhension.

The intertwined histories of Paris and of the River Seine are interesting but complicated. It is the Seine, however with all its ports, bridges, boats, commerce, monuments, and vistas, that has always been the keystone in the arch of Paris life, both in the past and now in the present. The great French medievalist Jean Favier (1932-2014) summed up its story in just six words: "Paris is born of the Seine." Paris may be known today as "The City of Light" but, like most big cities, it also has a sordid side. This book introduces to the reader not only the rich and the famous of Paris, but also some of "the unknown people of the Seine." These latter include traders, police officers, millers, fishermen, charlatans, monkey handlers, jugglers, water carriers, and the homeless men searching through the cold mud of the Seine trying to find a small gold ornament of some kind lost by a rich traveler passing by in a boat.
