[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of great recommendations here. YMMV, but I really enjoy watching films/reading books about a particular location before I visit. I get more out of the trip that way. “Seven Ages of Paris” by Alistair Horne is a fantastic history of the city. As for films, you might enjoy “Midnight in Paris” or “Before Sunset” (before watching the latter, which takes place in Paris, watch its prequel, “Before Sunrise”). [/quote] I'd add Hemingway's "A Moveable Feast" to this list. Get it from the library, or purchase a copy at Shakespeare and Company for the flight home (the stamps make for fun souvenirs).[/quote] My favorite book about Paris: [i] The Only Street in Paris[/i] by Elaine Sciolino, longtime NYT Paris-based reporter My favorite movie: the Paris scenes from Julie and Julia[/quote]
