Bog beskrivelse

''Gave New Yorker readers a witty guide to the minutiae of life abroad'' JAMES CAMPBELL, GUARDIAN

''Cafe Society described from the best table in the place, by a writer with rare and vivid gifts'' ROBERT LACEY

''Lively and witty . . . fascinating escapist entertainment'' LEEDS GUIDE

In 1925, Janet Flanner began writing a fortnightly ''Letter from Paris'' for the nascent New Yorker. Her brief: to tell New Yorkers, under her pen name of ''Genet'', what the French thought was going on in France, not what she thought.

Paris Was Yesterday is a collection of those letters written in the 1920s and 1930s, surely one of the most fascinating periods in the city''s history and it reads like an Arts Who''s Who. Flanner saw it all and knew everyone (or at least all about them), and there are tidbits galore about the likes of James Joyce, Ernest Hemingway, Isadora Duncan, Diaghilev, Gertrude Stein, Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, Picasso and Marlena Dietrich.

Witty, catty, literary and unashamedly gossipy, it''s a lively portrait of the thriving cultural life in Paris between the wars. In the brilliantly entertaining style she made her own, Flanner mixed high and low culture to devastating effect.
