[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

Paris by Night.
<p>Paris in the 20s Brassai. Paris by Night. New York:: Pantheon 1987. First Printing of the First US Edition. ISBN: 0394563271. 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

Paris in American Literature. Translated by Laurette Long.
<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

In 1917 Sylvia Beach walked into a Paris bookshop where she met Adrienne Monnier the woman who would become her life companion. In 1919 Beach opened her own English-language bookshop and lending library Shakespeare and Company which would become the cynosure of an entire literary movement. Literary expatriates were drawn to her shop but her most celebrated literary efforts are those she made on behalf of her literary idol James Joyce undertaking the publication of Ulysses. Noel Riley Fitch uses Beach as the focal point for a fascinating portrait of an artistic community filled with anecdote after anecdote. From the intellectual salons at Natalie Barney's residence--of which "William Carlos Williams would recall only the lesbian women dancing together"--to the seemingly constant presence of Ezra Pound Fitch's account solidifies the importance of the time and place he so vividly re-creates.

[Paris in the 1920s] Wiser, William
The Great Good Place: American Expatriate Women in Paris.
<p>New York:: Norton 1991. First Printing of the First Edition. A Fine copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. For the five American expatriate women profiled in Wiser's superb sparkling group portrait Paris was a social laboratory in which to lose or remake oneself. Mary Cassatt's fertile relationship with Degas gave way to her sour last years of exile in France when she progressively lost her eyesight. Edith Wharton cool-headed observer of society's ironies flung herself into a dalliance with English journalist Morton Fullerton who at the time was engaged to his first cousin while Wharton neglected her own clinically depressed husband. Flapper Caresse Crosby shared the opium highs and sexual excesses of her poet husband Harry then managed their Black Sun Press after his suicide. Daredevil Zelda Fitzgerald envied famous novelist husband F. Scott who expropriated her mental breakdown as material for his fiction. Josephine Baker illiterate teenage chorus girl from St. Louis came closest to becoming a "changeling hybrid Parisienne." In marvelous vignettes Wiser The Crazy Years creates an iridescent prism refracting the City of Light's special alchemy and ambiance. From Publisher's Weekly.</p> Norton, hardcover

[Paris in the 1920s] Stearns, Harold E
The Street I Know.
<p>Paris in the 1920s Stearns Harold E. The Street I Know. New York: Lee Furman Inc. 1935. First Printing of the First Edition. A Near Fine tight copy in Very Good plus unclipped dust jacket with edge wear and creasing to the front panel. Stearns was a prolific journalist and writer who early in his career wrote for the New Republic and Dial magazine before moving to Paris in 1921 where he penned articles and columns for the New York Herald. Stearns symbolized the bitter emptiness the bewildered desperation of the generation that had survived a war only to face a world bent on forgetting its political sins in lust and liquor or whatever anodyne the moment might bring. Those strange futile years have been immortalized in the fiction of Hemingway and Fitzgerald; but here in Stearn's narrative they make their way into biography. No one has written more soberly about that drunken state of mind; no one has been more continent in describing these excesses; no one has romanticized less about the absurd romantic attitudes of the literary Bohemia.Stearns became the model for the character Harvey Stone in Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises. </p> Lee Furman Inc., hardcover
