Hallie moves to Paris to reinvent herself, find a new life, and maybe a new love. She's off to a fair start, she's landed a bartending job at a dive called Millie's and found new friends in the eccentric crew that runs the place. Then, it gets weird. There's a strange woman who won't leave her alone. Garbled warnings from bizarre creatures disrupt her sleep. She keeps running into a man with a charming smile--a man she should probably steer clear of. And she can't stop falling back in time in Millie's keg room. Soon, Hallie is caught up in something much bigger than herself-a project that this mystery man needs her to join. But with every trip through time, Hallie loses a little of herself, and each infinitesimal change she makes ripples through Paris, until the future she's trying to save suddenly looks nothing like what she hoped for...

Paris, 1929. For Harris Stuyvesant, his current assignment is a private investigator's dream - he's getting paid to trawl the cafés and bars of Montparnasse, looking for a pretty young woman. The missing person in question is Philippa Crosby, a twenty-two-year-old from Boston, whose family have become alarmed at her lack of communication. As Stuyvesant follows Philippa's trail through Paris, he finds that she is known to many of its famous - and infamous - inhabitants, from Shakespeare and Company's Sylvia Beach to the surrealist photographer Man Ray. But when the evidence leads Stuyvesant to the Théâtre du Grand-Guignol in Montmartre, his investigation takes a sharp and disturbing turn.

'Paris is the World, the rest of the Earth is nothing but its suburbs' - Marivaux In this intelligently-written and supremely entertaining new history, Colin Jones seeks to give a sense of the city of Paris as it was lived in and experienced over time. The focal point of generation upon generation of admirers and detractors, a source of attraction or repulsion even for those who have never been there, Paris has witnessed more extraordinary events than any other major city. No spot on earth has been more walked around, written about, discussed, painted and photographed. With an eye for the revealing, startling and (sometimes) horrible detail, Colin Jones takes the reader from Roman Paris to the present, recreating the ups and downs in the history of the city and its inhabitants. Attentive to both the urban environment and to the experience of those who lived within it, PARIS: BIOGRAPHY OF A CITY will be hugely enjoyed by habitual Paris obsessives, by first-time visitors, and by those who know the city only by repute.

This book is an insightful tale of contemporary friction between languages, cultures and religions in Paris. With unusual sensitivity and in language that is both restrained and powerful, The Sand Dunes of Paris portrays the vulnerable lives of immigrants to Paris. Albert, a young Jewish immigrant from the Maghreb lives in Paris adrift, cut off from his mother tongue and his familiar world, between quiet desperation and cautious hope. When he believes he has found love and it seems that the pieces of his life's puzzle are falling into place, a random murder occurs which upsets his world and places him in danger of deportation. Praise for The Sand Dunes of Paris:"This brilliant book by Edna Shemesh is a love song for Paris."Haaretz"In The Sand Dunes of Paris we meet again Edna Shemesh's rich language and her impressive ability to interlace the poetic and the sublime with the earthly and the mundane. [...] She describes the decaying of an apple with persuasive lyricism, sex moans as if they were the song of a mermaid, and murder as if it were an elegant operatic scene. At times, it seems as though Charles Baudelaire, the renowned French poet, was sitting on her shoulder, guiding her to describe the dirt of Paris with golden words."Ynet

Born into a poor Virginian family, John Treville Latouche (1914-56), in his short life, made a profound mark on America's musical theater as a lyricist, book writer, and librettist. The wit and skill of his lyrics elicited comparisons with the likes of Ira Gershwin, Lorenz Hart, and Cole Porter, but he had too, noted Stephen Sondheim, "a large vision of what musical theater could be," and he proved especially venturesome in helping to develop a lyric theater that innovatively combined music, word, dance, and costume and set design. Many of his pieces, even if not commonly known today, remain high points in the history of American musical theater. "A great American genius" in the words of Duke Ellington, Latouche initially came to wide public attention in his early twenties with his cantata for soloist and chorus, Ballad for Americans (1939), with music by Earl Robinson-a work that swept the nation during the Second World War. Other milestones in his career included the all-black musical fable, Cabin in the Sky (1940), with Vernon Duke; an interracial updating of John Gay's classic, The Beggar's Opera, as Beggar's Holiday (1946), with Duke Ellington; two acclaimed Broadway operas with Jerome Moross: Ballet Ballads (1948) and The Golden Apple (1954); one of the most enduring operas in the American canon, The Ballad of Baby Doe (1956), with Douglas Moore; and the operetta Candide (1956), with Leonard Bernstein and Lillian Hellman. Extremely versatile, he also wrote cabaret songs, participated in documentary and avant-garde film, translated poetry, adapted plays, and much else. Meanwhile, as one of Manhattan's most celebrated raconteurs and hosts, he developed a wide range of friends in the arts, including, to name only a few, Paul and Jane Bowles (whom he introduced to each other), Yul Brynner, John Cage, Jack Kerouac, Frederick Kiesler, Carson McCullers, Frank O'Hara, Dawn Powell, Ned Rorem, Virgil Thomson, Gore Vidal, and Tennessee Williams-a dazzling constellation of diverse artists working in sundry fields, all attracted to Latouche's brilliance and joie de vivre, not to mention his support for their work. This book draws widely on archival collections both at home and abroad, including Latouche's diaries and the papers of Bernstein, Ellington, Moore, Moross, and many others, to tell for the first time, the story of this fascinating man and his work.
