Paris Echo, Hardcover

Descriere

The value of historical knowledge as an alternative to living in the present is explored in this new book from the author of bestselling novel Birdsong. American postgraduate Hannah, who researches lives of women during the German occupation, and Tariq, who has run away from Morocco in search of sex and adventure, are followed as a conduit to these themes. Presents a Paris not of refined aspirations but of cultural hauntings and simmering tensions.
