THE NEW PARIS, Abrams (2017)
The city long-adored for its medieval beauty, old-timey brasseries, and corner cafés has even more to offer today. In the last decade, a flood of new ideas and creative locals has infused a once-static, traditional city with a new open-minded sensibility and energy. I lend detailed insight into the rapidly evolving worlds of food, wine, pastry, coffee, beer, fashion, and design in the delightful city of Paris. The book puts the spotlight on the new trends and people that are making France’s capital a more whimsical, creative, vibrant, and curious place to explore than its classical reputation might suggest. It includes hundreds of striking photographs by Charissa Fay that capture this fresh, animated spirit.

THE NEW PARISIENNE, Abrams (2020)
The New Parisienne: The Women & Ideas Shaping Paris challenges the oversimplified archetype of the Parisienne and recasts the women of Paris as they truly are, in all their complexity. Featuring more than 40 activists, creators, educators, visionaries, and disruptors—such as Leïla Slimani, Lauren Bastide, and Mayor Anne Hidalgo—the book reveals Paris as a blossoming cultural center of feminine power. The NYT Bestselling author Priya Parker called it “an extraordinary creative act and a radical project. You think you’re getting a travel guide but you’re also getting a journey, an education, and a conversation.”
