reviewed Report from a Parisian Paradise: Essays from France, 1925-1939 on December 18, 2010 Report from a Parisian Paradise: Essays from France, 1925-1939
This was a follow-on from Joseph Roth's book, "What I Saw," his observations from Berlin from 1920-23. He left Germany because of the things he saw going on there, and moved to France, which he found to be a free and enlightened paradise in comparison. It's a total pleasure to read his delightful observations about France, where he enjoyed a quality of life that was disappearing in Germany. In his writing, he moves from city to city and describes each of them and his joy in being there. But he can't help but observe from a distance the Nazi ascendancy in Germany, and over time his writing reflects his sadness and outrage about what is happening in his homeland. It seems fortunate in a way that he died in 1939, a year before the occupation of France. All in all, a moving and personal record of the times.
