WINNER OF THE 2022 FRENCH HERITAGE SOCIETY BOOK AWARD The profound emotion felt around the world upon seeing images of Notre-Dame in flames opens up a series of questions: Why was everyone so deeply moved? Why does Notre-Dame so clearly crystallise what our civilisation is about? What makes ‘Our Lady of Paris’ the soul of a nation and a symbol of human achievement? What is it that speaks so directly to us today? In answer, Agnès Poirier turns to the defining moments in Notre-Dame’s history. Beginning with the laying of the corner stone in 1163, she recounts the conversion of Henri IV to Catholicism, the coronation of Napoleon, Victor Hugo’s nineteenth-century campaign to preserve the cathedral, Baron Haussmann’s clearing of the streets in front of it, the Liberation in 1944, the 1950s film of The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, starring Gina Lollobrigida and Anthony Quinn, and the state funeral of Charles de Gaulle, before returning to the present. The conflict over Notre-Dame’s reconstruction promises to be fierce. Nothing short of a cultural war is already brewing between the wise and the daring, the sincere and the opportunist, historians and militants, the devout and secularists. It is here that Poirier reveals the deep malaise – gilet jaunes and all – at the heart of the France.

Excerpt from The Soul of Paris: Two Months in the French Capital During the War of 1914 When a man reaches the indiscreet age of fifty-two and has the impudence to publish a book it is not a Preface which he should write, but an Apology. The chapters contained within these covers were never intended to assume the dignity of a Book. They were begun as a sort of pastime, something to give the writer a mental distraction while other business required his remaining in Paris during the first two months of the War of 1914. The first two or three were mailed to my friend, George M. Smith, Managing Editor of The Evening Sun of New York. He told to "chuck 'em in the waste basket if he couldn't find any use for them." Smith apparently thought they were worth while and cabled me to send some more. It is altogether his fault that I kept this correspondence going. The public may never forgive him, but I owe him a deep debt of gratitude. The reader may declare my chapters "rot," but that makes no difference to me, for I never enjoyed anything so much in my life as the writing of these "Random Notes" in Paris during the War of 1914, for which this man Smith is chiefly responsible. Gentle reader, bear Smith no malice. He meant well, and if this prefatory apology is not convincing you don't have to read the book, for I am quite sure there will be any number of other books written upon the same subject by literary persons much less obscure and much more capable of dealing with it than I. However, it is my first chance after over thirty years of "common or garden" newspaper work to have a book printed with my name on the title page.
