With Paris as the unifying link connecting a remarkable variety of writing, this anthology captures the inspiration of the city and lifestyle while defying expectations of “expatriate Parisian literature,” which the editors contend is a myth. The collection represents contemporary anglophone writing from Paris without the veneer and misplaced assumptions of stereotypes, romantic notions, or iconic representations. The anthology contains entries as diverse and disparate as a novel excerpt, ekphrastic poetry, a tongue-in-cheek take on a famed 19th-century novel, a short story about a forced extended stay in Paris, and an interview with a celebrated American poet. The anthology, beyond its entertaining qualities, is a valuable snapshot of the English-language authorship currently developing in and about Paris.
