Review # 1 was written on 2008-07-27 00:00:00 Karl Green I loved Adam Gopnik's Paris to the Moon so when I heard about his latest - a compilation of esssays - I was delighted. It's not a book I read cover to cover, just pick it up for a read now and then. I do enjoy it.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-08-16 00:00:00 Susann Sagvand All the different ways in which Americans have experienced -- and thus shaped how we imagine-- PARIS. For anyone interested in how our perceptions and prejudices and predilections for things European, and indeed for things American, have changed since Benjamin Franklin set the template, dip into and out of this smartly selected anthology. Lotsa interesting people weighed in on Paris, from Franklin and Jefferson and Abigail Adams to P.T. Barnum. Gopnik's opening preface is perceptive as well.
