Kiki's Memoirs. Edited by Billy Kluver & Julie Martin. Introduction by Ernest Hemingway. Photos by Man Ray.
New York:: Ecco Press 1996. First Printing of the First Ecco Edition. A Fine copy in a Near Fine dust jacket with a small closed edge tear. .Known as the queen of Montparnasse Kiki was the quintessential artists' muse and model. She epitomized the verve of 1920s Paris--with her strong and alluring face and graceful and voluptuous body--and became a modern icon in the photographs of her longtime lover Man Ray. First published in 1929 and promptly banned in the U.S. Kiki's account of herself as a "love child" who suffered profound emotional and physical deprivation is a work of great wit and elan. She wrote about her youth again for a Paris newspaper just a few years before her death and these reminiscences are frank elegantly understated and truly moving. Kiki survived her brutal youth with intelligence and humor making her way to the very heart of the art world where her uninhibited sexuality theatricality and abundant joie de vivre ensured her a life of spirited and celebrated improvisation.

[Paris in the 1920s] Windstaff, WW W W
Lower Than Angels: A Memoir of War & Peace. With An Introduction by Stephen Longstreet.
<p>Silver Spring: :: Enigma Books 1993. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. When he wrote this memoir over sixty years ago the author planned a privately printed edition as gifts for his friends. He chose a pseudonym W.W. Windstaff to avoid embarrassing his socially prominent family. His true identity remains a secret. In a unique style Lower than Angels captures the essence of war with wonderfully descriptive passages of air combat and life in Paris and Rome during the 1920s. Later Windstaff vividly memorializes the expatriate experience. More than simply a memoir of fascinating times Lower than Angels is a raw and powerful portrayal of a man who could not overcome the trauma of war and survived with a veneer of cynicism aided by the bottle. Lower than Angles will certainly be appreciated for its value as an historical record. It will also captivate readers with its charm and delight a wide audience.</p> Enigma Books, hardcover

[Paris in the 1920s] Bald, Wambly
On The Left Bank 1929-1933.
Athens:: Ohio University Press 1987. First Printing of the First Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine dust jacket. Wambly Bald went to Paris in 1929 and worked for the Chicago Tribune where he wrote a weekly column called "La Vie de Boheme." In this column he tried to capture the energy and spirit of Montparnasse through his accounts of the model Kiki a young writer named Henry Miller Gertrude Stein and Aleister Crowley to name but a few. The serendipitously named Bald is a funny unpretentious writer and because his essays were meant as ephemera they aren't as dated as much as the ""serious"" reportage of the time. These columns were written for The Chicago Tribune like a somewhat cracked society column or in-house newsletter for a wild theater troupe. Bald was a friend of Henry Miller and Hemingway who apparently paid his passage back home in the 1930's. Apart from his wit Bald seems to have been a congenial companion who was almost always drunk. The irony is that this lush of a columnist outlived them all. A great first hand look at the expatriate community at its best and worst. Ohio University Press, unknown

A Fine copy in a Very Good unclipped dust jacket with peeling to the jacket laminate. Arriving in Paris in 1924 Brassaï rapidly became a shrewd observer of nocturnal Parisian life. He sensed that photography was the tool that would allow him to document his vision of a dying society. Fascinated by the night which he found disconcerting enigmatic and suggestive Brassaï photographed its every aspect from police to prostitutes to the homeless to socialites all in a dreamlike and mysterious manner. In sixty-four images Brassaï succeeded in remarkably capturing this unique ambience. This book meticulously assembled by Brassaï himself signifies the birth of the artist. Brassaï originally from Hungary traveled to Paris in 1924 where he began to associate with the avant-garde artist community in particular with Picasso and the Parisian surrealist circles. He quickly established himself as one of the most original photographers of his generation. </p> Pantheon,, hardcover

<p>Chapel Hill: :: University of North Carolina 1989. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine copy in a Near Fine dust jacket with two creases to the front flap. Meral explores the ways in which Paris constitutes an authentic literary subject and analyzes the differing responses to the city of such American writers as Henry James Edith Wharton Ernest Hemingway John Dos Pasos and Henry Miller. Central is that idea that although literary Paris reflects the changing fortunes of real Paris the Paris depicted remains a uniquely American one because the heroes of the works are expatriate Americans who apprehend the city through a foreign sensibility.</p> University of North Carolina, hardcover

[Paris in the 1920s] Stovall, Tyler
Paris Noir: African-Americans in the City of Light.
<p>Boston::: Houghton Mifflin 1996. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine unread copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. Stovall's revelatory chronicle reclaims an important yet neglected chapter of cultural history delineating a cohesive community of black American expatriate writers artists musicians and intellectuals in Paris from 1914 to the present. During WWI African American soldiers targets of discrimination on the front and back home were welcomed cordially by ordinary French citizens. Attracted by the myth of a color-blind France Harlem Renaissance writers Langston Hughes Claude McKay and Countee Cullen flocked to Paris; Josephine Baker conquered the stage with her sensational performances; jazz musicians Miles Davis Charlie Parker and Bill Coleman lived in and drew inspiration from the City of Light. In the 1930s African American expatriate writers and artists in Paris helped launch the Negritude movement. Postwar Paris became a magnet to writers like Richard Wright James Baldwin and detective novelist Chester Himes who saw themselves as political exiles from a racist U.S. They fit into a vibrant Left Bank community that maintained close ties with Camus Cocteau Sartre de Beauvoir. The 1960s and '70s saw an influx of African American emigre scientists photographers restaurant owners taxi drivers diversifying the community that today faces the rise of overt French racism. Stovall a history professor at UC Santa Cruz begins with an account of his own transformative experience as an African American in Paris in the early 1980s.</p> Houghton Mifflin, hardcover
