The Seine: The River that Made Paris
“Elaine Sciolino has laid one more beautiful and amusing wreath on the altar of the City of Light.â€â€•Edmund White, New York Times
Blending memoir, travelogue, and history, The Seine is a love letter to Paris and the river that determined its destiny. Master storyteller and longtime New York Times foreign correspondent Elaine Sciolino explores the Seine through its lively characters―a bargewoman, a riverbank bookseller, a houseboat dweller, a famous cinematographer―and follows it from the remote plateaus of Burgundy, through Paris, and to the sea. The Seine is a vivid, enchanting portrait of the world’s most irresistible river.Technical Specifications
