New York: The Viking Press, 1972. Fifth Printing. Hardcover. good/fair. 24 cm, xxiv, 232 pages, illus., index, DJ worn, soiled, creased, and torn, pencil erasure on half-title. Edges soiled. Janet Flanner (March 13, 1892 - November 7, 1978) was an American writer and journalist who served as the Paris correspondent of The New Yorker magazine from 1925 until she retired in 1975.[1] She wrote under the pen name "Genêt". She also published a single novel, The Cubical City, set in New York City. Flanner lived in New York City during World War II with Natalia Danesi Murray and her son William B. Murray, still writing for The New Yorker. She returned to Paris in 1944. Her New Yorker work during World War II included not only her famous "Letter from Paris" columns, but also included a seminal 3-part series profiling Hitler (1936), and coverage of the Nuremberg trials (1945). Additionally, she contributed a series of little-known weekly radio broadcasts for the NBC Blue… Read More

New York: Viking Press, 1972. First Edition, seventh printing. With spot drawings from THE NEW YORKER. 8vo, full black cloth with gilt on spine. In the original dustjacket. xxiv, 232. A fine copy. A FASCINATING ACCOUNT OF PARIS IN THE 20s & 30s. Writing under the pen name Genet, Janet Flanner wrote the “Letter from Paris” column in the New Yorker magazine. Collected here are her best columns from 1925-1939. Thus there are contemporaneous accounts of exciting things like Lindbergh's arrival in Paris on 21 May 1927, and the riot on Feb 6, 1934, connected to the Stavisky scandal. Flanner has incisive comments on prominent people who died in Paris such as Clemenceau in 1929 and Marshall Foch that same year, and of Edith Wharton in 1937. Flanner is very readable, pertinent and often funny. It was a fantastic stretch of years, made more poignant by what we know came immediately after it.
