Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shadows of Old Paris To most Anglo-Saxons and Americans, Paris of the Twentieth Century is almost as familiar as their native cities. Its crowded Boulevards, brilliant cafes, theatres, and shops are the playground of hundreds of thousands of English-speaking tourists, whose yearly trip to the "Gay City" is a regular chapter in the programme of diversion. Though every man is not a Frenchman, each may become, to a certain extent, a Parisian; for the asphalt is hospitable to all nationalities alike, if they will but bring with them a capacity for enjoyment and the wherewithal to pay for it liberally. Yet, amongst the crowds of idlers and pleasure-seekers, of students even, who make the French capital temporarily their home, there are few lovers of tradition curious enough to turn from the dazzling modern city of pleasure, and plunge into the dingy Paris of the past, itself a town within a town, rapidly being swallowed up by the hydra-headed demon of improvement, with its insatiable appetite and power of destruction. Along the quays, some of the older houses yet remain; in the streets adjoining, slumbering amid gardens, lie the stately homes of the nobility, a few still occupied by the great families who have inhabited them for generations. But they are fast disappearing, and many have fallen from their high estate to serve as warehouses, or for commercial purposes, or, even, as tenements for the poorest classes of artisans and workmen. Here and there, in the narrow streets of a sordid quarter, mouldy with grime and dampness, a proud frontage will rear its graceful proportions, keeping, though in dilapidated surroundings, its birthright of dignity and beauty.

Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller “The Shadow of the Wind is ultimately a love letter to literature, intended for readers as passionate about storytelling as its young hero.” —Entertainment Weekly (Editor's Choice) “One gorgeous read.” —Stephen King Barcelona, 1945: A city slowly heals in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War, and Daniel, an antiquarian book dealer’s son who mourns the loss of his mother, finds solace in a mysterious book entitled The Shadow of the Wind, by one Julián Carax. But when he sets out to find the author’s other works, he makes a shocking discovery: someone has been systematically destroying every copy of every book Carax has written. In fact, Daniel may have the last of Carax’s books in existence. Soon Daniel’s seemingly innocent quest opens a door into one of Barcelona’s darkest secrets--an epic story of murder, madness, and doomed love.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Paris, Vol. 1 of 2: Its Court and Literary Salons The seventeenth century, in its literary and social aspects, is regarded by French writers generally as the most brilliant period in the history of their nation. It has been termed "the epoch of the true greatness of France," - "the true Renaissance of literature and les beaux arts." It is indeed a period of very varied and romantic interest. Woman played an important part in it - contributing largely towards the reform then achieved in the French language, and in the corrupt and gross manners of the age, and introducing into the social relations of life that peculiar grace, fascinating ease, vivacity, and undefinable charm still vainly sought for in society out of France.

This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Convents of Paris, And, the Haunted Marsh Upon the high road leading from' Paris to Italy, and at a short league from the frontier, near the place where the Var separates Provence from the county of Nice, may be perceived, situated in a bare and arid country, the ruins of an old chateau, the front wall of which, still standing, is pierced by large windows whose sashless apertures stand out clear and distinct against the deep azure of the cloudless sky. A massive tower of a style of architecture more ancient than the remain der of the edifice, overtops these ruins, and on its embattled summit, in which time has worn but few breaches, may be distinguished a slender shaft appearing in the distance scarcely larger than a needle, and presenting very much the appearance of a common lightning-conductor. It is the stump of the agstaff from which formerly waved the sei norial standard. The hill on which stand these ruined bui dings is covered with a thick growth of stunted but highly aromatic vegetation, the sight of which would delight the eyes of a botanist; for the rare plants that distil these overpowering odours, which the breeze frequently wafts to a great distance and even carries several leagues out to sea, thrive upon this arid rock wlfiich could scarcely be supposed to nourish even a grain or w eat.
