Meet the dazzling women of Paris: from Colette to Nancy Mitford; Marie Antoinette to Coco Chanel; Madame de Stael to Pamela Harriman; Napoleon’s Josephine to Edith Wharton. Rule-breakers and style-setters, demimondes and diplomats, these women were utterly diverse, yet all shared one common passion — Paris, the world’s headquarters of femininity.
At a turning point in her life, Lucinda Holdforth journeys to Paris and takes a very personal tour through the lives, loves, and losses of its celebrated women. She evokes the city’s incarnations from Louis XIV through the French Revolution, two world wars and the Paris of the new millennium. As she walks in their footsteps, she draws inspiration from the fascinating women who created and nurtured the world’s most civilized city. Sophisticated, witty, and intelligent, this entrancing travelogue will seduce and inspire every woman in search of her own true pleasures.
Lucinda is the author of three non-fiction works: Leading Lines: How to make speeches that seize the moment, advance the cause and lead the way (2019), True Pleasures: A Memoir of Women in Paris (2004) and Why Manners Matter: The Case for Civilised Behaviour in a Barbarous World (2007).

作者一边游玩巴黎一边品评巴黎的历代女性。如果你把这本书当做游览法国巴黎的指南书,你错了;作者无组织无计划地东写一点巴黎的建筑,西写一段巴黎破碎的景致,偶尔夹杂一点无病呻吟的想法,零零散散地,不成体系,不能当做旅游指南;如果你把这本书当做了解法国巴黎女人的历...
评分《自由、爱与欢愉》中有这样一段关于食物的描写:一口的西红柿雪酪、一口的西红柿慕斯和一口的西红柿派,这三口餐点精心排列在里摩瓷盘上,看起来是三种颜色,尝起来是三层口感:这一口是甜的,下一口略为尖锐,最后一口留有暖呼呼的余味,每一口都展现出西红柿的不同风貌,...
评分“一个造就了人生机会,不论你选择了什么来造就,这正是巴黎允诺给格特鲁德•斯坦以及其他女性的,这是一个让女人得以定义自己,并且以她自己的定义让社会所接纳的城市,你可以超越自身既有的一切,包括你的过往、你的血缘、童年经历,或甚至自身文化的重担。这是多么令人向...
评分这是一本女性写女性的书,封面很“洛可可”,加上“爱、自由、欢愉、女人”的字眼,添几分妖娆和暧昧。这样一种感觉和整本书的气息非常契合。 写作本书前,作者即使不算本分,起码是个不甚解风情的澳大利亚傻妞,曾任外交官,还在副总理手下做过助手。在逼近中年的时候,深感...
