Long unavailable in English, this book opens the door to a Paris now spectral and half-forgotten--where the boulevards echoed with café banter, jazz and politics collided in salons, and the ghosts of Baudelaire and Montmartre's bohemians still haunted the mist. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFargue was called \"the stroller of Paris\" not merely for his gait but for his gaze: intimate, encyclopedic, and electric. From the hidden depths of La Chapelle to the glitter of the Champs-Élysées, he guides us through arrondissements like a flâneur-philosopher--equal parts Proust and Apollinaire--seeking the soul of a city in every reflection, every voice, every shifting light. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Translated with uncommon sensitivity by Rainer J. Hanshe, The Stroller of Paris is not just a book about Paris--it is Paris, in all its bygone splendor and raw humanity. An essential rediscovery for lovers of literature, history, and the art of the dérive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leon-Paul Fargue\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1967751293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781967751297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Eris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/02\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Leon-Paul Fargue","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46962719523071,"sku":"9781967751297","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_733ff79b-bf07-442d-9e87-5055fb266ef6.jpg?v=1750652323","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-stroller-of-paris-leon-paul-fargue-9781967751297","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
