5.0 out of 5 stars Paris Tales takes you to Paris
I say - buy this you'll like this book.

This is a wonderful anthology of translated stories. I was a bit leery that some of them might be too dated but no, they do capture the essences of the arrondissements. Having been to Paris twice I know that the stories capture you and place you right there.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nicely done and just what I wanted
I'm about halfway through this book. I am planning a trip to Paris in the fall and I wanted a book that would describe the look and feel of specific parts of Paris in a fictional setting. This was the perfect choice. It is very descriptive. The book is all short stories written by Parisian authors.

1.0 out of 5 stars Paris Tales Review, March 30, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Paris Tales (Paperback)
Paris Tales is a very basic short story book. It probably would come in handy for someone planning a trip to Paris. Basically it seemed to be written by men and translated by a woman. I just expected more "something" if you know what I mean. As a writer there was nothing in any of the stories to hold my interest. sorry
