By Adam Gopnik
Paris is a city that has always been synonymous with literature. From the cafes where Hemingway and Fitzgerald wrote their masterpieces to the bookstores where Joyce and Proust found inspiration, Paris has been a magnet for writers and readers alike.
In Paris to the Moon, Adam Gopnik takes us on a journey through the city's literary landscape, exploring the places that have inspired and shaped some of the greatest works of literature in the world.
Gopnik's journey begins in the cafes of the Left Bank, where Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and other members of the "Lost Generation" spent their days drinking and writing. He visits the bookstores where Joyce and Proust browsed for books, and the libraries where they did their research.
Gopnik also explores the city's many literary landmarks, from the apartment where Victor Hugo wrote Les Misérables to the park where Balzac took his daily walks. He shows us the places where writers have lived, worked, and died, and he tells the stories of their lives and their work.
Paris to the Moon is a love letter to Paris and to literature. It is a book that will delight anyone who has ever loved a book or dreamed of visiting the City of Light.
