Paris Sharing the Magic

New Yorker by birth, Parisian by choice, San Franciscan by chance, Cathy Fiorello has lived her life in three great cities, but her heart belongs to Paris. "I didn't know something was missing from my life until I got to Paris," she says. In this memoir of her 20-year love affair with Paris, she writes affectionately of the French people, the splendor of French art and architecture, the magnificence of the parks, the sublime food. She has seen and tasted it all, yet she returns again, and again. "Paris is not about seeing," she writes, "it's about being," There is no doubt Paris is where she wants to be. Readers will come away from this ode to the City of Light yearning to be there, too.
