Begins in journalism. Didn't quite end in literature. 2/3 through the book it was a 5-star, but the last part is not as satisfactory. Gopnik is good at observing the cultural nuances and putting it with a sharp wit, as in the typical New Yorker fashion. But in the last part, he tries to generalize to life, and is not very successful
“It is impossible to resist delighting in the nuances of his articles, for the details concerning French culture that one discovers even when one if French oneself.”沉醉在Adam Gopnik绝佳的文笔中，永远信服witted writing！很久很久没有这种阅读的快感啦✌️
Begins as an editorial and ends as a literature. A delicately written prose with love embedded in daily life details. Life goes on with unexpected changes but Paris remains eternal!

这书好多年前的，这次不想带电子阅读器就随手从书架上抽的。第二遍看觉得写的好好。。。 文笔好是一方面，该作者对旧世界理解的很透彻。。。
