American Library in Paris Book Group

The Art of Remembering: Paris
Bricktop’s, Ballerinas and B...

Saturdays, 17h00–18h30 (Spaces Open)

The Spring 2025 season of The Art of…: Paris book group conjures up Paris as
it was during the interwar period.

From Montmartre’s wild nightlife to the vibrant underbelly of
Montparnasse… From Natalie Barney’s rue Jacob rendez-vous to Sylvia
Beach’s English-language bookshop on rue Dupuytren… This book group fetes
some of the American (women) writers, creatives and glitterati who have
contributed to literary life in Paris, France.

This group meets on Zoom.

Led by Precious Brown.
