Book Presentation:
“Everywhere is interesting, especially if inhabited.” Paris is the best city for seeing films from anywhere and everywhere in the world. You can travel around the globe in the cinemas of Paris. This is precisely what Theodore Dalrymple did. Here are his reflections — historical, cultural, philosophical — on the 33 films that he saw, often combined with his own reminiscences of the various countries he had visited himself. The universal and the particular are inextricably combined in this highly original and amusing book. Theodore Dalrymple is a retired doctor and psychiatrist who has written many books, including Life at the Bottom, Admirable Evasions and Embargo and Other Stories.
