    • Miscellaneous: Books:

    I would guess that more books have been written on Paris than on any other city. As well as being a hugely popular tourist destination, many writers from France and especially from abroad have settled here or lived in the city at some point.

    My favourite books about Paris/set in Paris are:

    Shakespeare and Co. by Sylvia Beach
    Paris to the Moon by Adam Gopnik
    The Lost Generation by Noel Riley Fitch
    A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway
    Memoirs of Montparnasse by John Glassco
    Paris: A Literary Companion by Ian Littlewood
    Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
    Notre Dame de Paris by Victor Hugo
    A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens

     Excellent, tks Barry! Was looking for Viaduc des Arts in Paris but had forgotten the name... so I missed it. Should have checked here before the trip! :)    		11dana Mon May 18, 2009 19:42 UTC

     Great pages. Your love for this city is obvious. We all have a very special we like to go back to every so often. I love the 'drunk' picture with 4 Eiffel towers in the back ground!    		leecouk12324 Fri Aug 17, 2007 14:52 UTC
     Great to see you can keep going back to the same City and finding different things to do - i did the same with Amsterdam - but last time also got away from City - went Beach - did some Sumo wrestling. Off the beaten track!
