Produktinformationen "The Stroller of Paris"
A masterwork of poetic urban observation, The Stroller of Paris is Léon-Paul Fargue's luminous love letter to the city he wandered, savored, and immortalized in prose. 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. Fargue 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. 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.
