Celebrated for her innovative literary bravura, Gertrude Stein
(1874 1946) settled into a bustling Paris at the turn of the
twentieth century, never again to return to her native America.
While in Paris, she not only surrounded herself with and tirelessly
championed the careers of a remarkable group of young expatriate
artists but also solidified herself as "one of the most
controversial figures of American letters" (New York Times).
In Paris France (1940) published here with a new introduction
from Adam Gopnik Stein unites her childhood memories of Paris with
her observations about everything from art and war to love and
cooking. The result is an unforgettable glimpse into a bygone era,
one on the brink of revolutionary change.
