Laurence Sterne explores the temptations of the French capital in a teasing study of foreign mores, and Restif de la Bretonne provides an eyewitness account of the horrors and glories of the French Revolution. Hugo, Balzac, Flaubert, and Zola offer fascinating portraits of the growing metropolis’s teeming humanity; the Goncourt brothers chronicle its glittering literary circles; and Huysmans describes a memorable evening at the Folies Bergère. Colette recounts the sensual adventures of a young girl in the decadent Paris of the early twentieth century, while F. Scott Fitzgerald revels in its urban glamour. Jean Rhys’s lost heroines wander from café to café, James Baldwin celebrates the city’s sexual freedoms, and Raymond Queneau gleefully reinvents the language of the street. In more recent decades, Michel Tournier’s North African immigrant walks a camel along the boulevards, and Nobel laureate Patrick Modiano nostalgically maps the famed Parisian arrondissements. Theatrical and elegant, seamy and intellectual, Paris has never lost its alluring power, richly evoked in these compelling and seductive tales.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEdited by Shaun Whiteside\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHardcover\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e416 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMeasurements: 4.5 x 7.25 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePublished by Everyman's Library in 2016\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40071626064067,"sku":"13800","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0501\/7881\/8243\/products\/9781101907566.jpg?v=1713202982"},{"product_id":"glory-magical-visions-of-black-beauty","title":"GLORY: Magical Visions of Black Beauty","description":"\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"none\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFrom Kahran and Regis Bethencourt, the dynamite husband and wife duo behind CreativeSoul Photography, comes \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"none\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGLORY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"none\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e, a photography book that shatters the conventional beauty standards for Black children.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}' data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"none\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWith stunning images of natural hair and gorgeous, inventive visual storytelling,  \u003cem\u003eGLORY\u003c\/em\u003e puts Black beauty front and center with more than 100 breathtaking photographs and a collection of powerful essays about the children.

This is the first translation in English and the first time it has been published outside of Russia. The story of James Lloydovich Patterson and his family is a fascinating glimpse into post-Civil War life in America. The memoir, told in the first person by his grandmother, Margaret Glascoe, the daughter of a sharecropper, makes for a poignant account that resonates even today. Patterson adds his own insightful commentary and reflections throughout the chronicle. In 1932 Margaret Glascoe's only son Lloyd Patterson traveled to Moscow with Langston Hughes and other African Americans at the invitation of the Soviet government. Lloyd met and married Vera Aralova, a theatre designer and artist. They had three sons, James, Lloyd Jr., and Tom. James was born on 17 July 1933 in Moscow. When James was two years old, he was invited to play the crucial role of an interracial toddler in the 1936 classic Soviet film CIRCUS. Later, he attended the Nakhimov Naval School in Riga and the Naval Academy in Leningrad. He served in the Soviet Navy as an officer on a submarine. Film and the Navy were not his callings, but poetry was. James wrote his first poem at age seven, and in 1962 he graduated from the Maxim Gorky Literature Institute in Moscow. In 1963 Molodaya Gvardiya published his first poetry collection \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRussia, Africa\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e.
