When Paris Sizzled vividly portrays the City of Light during the fabulous 1920s, when art and architecture, music, literature, fashion, entertainment, transportation, and behavior all took dramatically new forms as Montparnasse became the epicenter of the avant-garde as well as of good times. Creative dynamos such as Hemingway, Cocteau, Chanel, Cole Porter, and Josephine Baker sparked the sizzle, aided by the radically innovative André Citroën, Le Corbusier, Man Ray, Sylvia Beach, James Joyce, and the irrepressible Kiki of Montparnasse. Through rich illustrations and evocative narrative, Mary McAuliffe brings this vibrant era to life.
