From the grand master of the

historical novel comes a dazzling, epic portrait of the City of

Light


Internationally bestselling author Edward Rutherfurd has

enchanted millions of readers with his sweeping,

multigenerational dramas that illuminate the great achievements

and travails throughout history. In this breathtaking saga of

love, war, art, and intrigue, Rutherfurd has set his sights on

the most magnificent city in the world: Paris.



Moving back and forth in time across centuries, the story unfolds

through intimate and vivid tales of self-discovery, divided

loyalties , passion, and long-kept secrets of characters both

fictional and real, all set against the backdrop of the glorious

city—from the building of Notre Dame to the dangerous

machinations of Cardinal Richlieu; from the glittering court of

Versailles to the violence of the French Revolution and the Paris

Commune; from the hedonism of the Belle Époque, the heyday of the

impressionists, to the tragedy of the First World War; from the

1920s when the writers of the Lost Generation could be found

drinking at Les Deux Magots to the Nazi occupation, the heroic

efforts of the French Resistance, and the 1968 student revolt.


With his unrivaled blend of impeccable research and narrative

verve, Rutherfurd weaves an extraordinary narrative tapestry that

captures all the glory of Paris. More richly detailed, more

thrilling, and more romantic then anything Rutherfurd has written

before, Paris: The Novel wonderfully illuminates hundreds of

years in the City of Light and Love and brings the sights,

scents, and tastes of Paris to sumptuous life.
