AN AMERICAN FOOL IN PARIS Want to learn more about yourself?
Then you need to pick up this book. It's weirdly insightful. Take the editor, for example: before diving into this one, he'd already read not one, not two, but three Chosie books-and still went for a fourth. That's when he realized he might be a masochist. He also learned (through repeated emotional breakdowns) which corners of his office are home to spiders, so he knows exactly where to curl up and cry. (In case you were wondering, it's the northeast corner. He named the spiders Jacques, Beyoncé, and Lord Byron.) Still not convinced?

Cue the drumroll... here comes the summary. In this actual fourth installment of What Chosie Knows-yes, the fourth, not a prequel, not a sequel to a prequel, not whatever other narrative gymnastics Mr. Powers has tried to pull-Chosie takes on the classic American in Paris trope. (That's Paris, France, not one of the nineteen knockoff Parises scattered across the U.S.A.) And, well... You probably should read the first three books before this one. Partly because we want your money, but mostly because trying to describe what a Chosie book actually is feels impossible. Our current strategy is to just point at the earlier ones and shout, More of that! So, yes.
More of that.
More of that.
