Paris to the Moon

Paris to the Moon

by Adam Gopnik

  • TRAVEL NARRATIVE
  • 2001
  • PAPER
  • 338 PAGES

Gopnik writes with candor and humor about Parisian ways in this charming collection of reflections on adapting to life abroad. The chapter on French medicine and the birth of the Gopniks' new baby alone is worth the price of this book.
