Dear Paris

Eat, Pray, Lovemeets Claude Monet in this epistolary ode to the French capital from the New York Times-bestselling author of Paris Letters.
What started as a whim in a Latin Quarter café blossomed into Janice MacLeod's years-long endeavor to document and celebrate life in Paris, sending monthly snippets of her paintings and writings to the mailboxes of ardent followers around the world. Now,Dear Pariscollects the entirety of the Paris Letters project: 140 illustrated messages discussing everything from macarons to Montmartre.
For readers familiar with the city,Dear Parisis a rendezvous with their own memories, like the first time they walked along the Champs-Élysées or the bestpain au chocolatthey've ever tasted. But it's about more than just a Paris frozen in nostalgia; the book paints the city as it is today, through elections, protests, and the World Cup-and through the people who call it home. Wistful, charming, surprising, and unfailingly optimistic,Dear Parisis a vicarious visit to one of the most iconic and beloved places in the world.
