Gertrude Stein lived in Paris from 1903 until her in 1946. She and her brother Leo were known as patrons of the arts, championing the works of Picasso, Cézanne and Matisse. After establishing an art collection that was destined to become internationally famous, she embarked on her writing career. Published on the day Paris fell to the Germans in 1940, Paris France blends Stein's childhood memories of Paris with trenchant observations and anecdotes of all things French. It is a witty fricassée of food and fashion, pets and painters, musicians, friends, and artists, served up with a healthy garnish of Steinian humor and self-indulgence. For readers who have previously considered Gertrude Stein to be a difficult author, Paris France provides a delightful window on her personal and unique world. Part of the new look Peter Owen Modern Classics range featuring a logo crafted by graphic design icon Alvin Lustig.
