About

A guide to Paris for those who are mystified by the city, those who are in love with it, and those who feel a little of both   Stephen Clarke may have adopted Paris as his home, but he still has an Englishman's eye for the people, cafés, art, sidewalks, food, fashion, and romance that make Paris a one-of-a-kind city. This irreverent outsider-turned-insider guide shares local savoir faire, from how to separate the good restaurants from the bad to navigating the baffling Métro system. It also provides invaluable insights into the etiquette of public urination and the best ways to experience Parisian life without annoying the Parisians (a truly delicate art). Clarke's witty and expert tour of the city leaves no boulevard unexplored-even those that might be better left alone.

Reviews

"Call him the anti-Mayle. Stephen Clarke is acerbic, insulting, un-PC and mostly hilarious."
San Francisco Chronicle
"Clarke renders the flavor of life in Paris impeccably: the endless strikes, the sadistic receptionists. . . . Clarke's eye for detail is terrific."
The Washington Post
