Paris like you’ve never seen it — one arrondissement at a time.

From the royal courts of the Louvre to the bohemian cafés of Montmartre, from revolutionary barricades in the Bastille to immigrant markets along the Canal Saint-Martin, Paris in Twenty Circles takes you on a spellbinding journey through the neighborhoods that built — and continue to reinvent — the City of Light.

Blending history, storytelling, and cultural insight, this book reveals:

• The palaces, revolutions, and scandals of Paris’s historic heart

• The cafés, philosophers, and jazz rhythms that shaped modern thought

• The working-class districts where rebellion ignited — and still burns

• The vibrant immigrant communities and street art transforming Paris today

• The eternal resting places of artists, rebels, and dreamers at Père Lachaise

Written for American readers, this isn’t a dry guidebook. It’s Paris told as a living story — dramatic, romantic, and endlessly human. Whether you’ve visited a dozen times, dream of your first trip, or simply love history that reads like a novel, this book will change the way you see Paris forever.
