Paris Blue: A Memoir of First Love - Paperback
Description
by Julie Scolnik (Author)
PARIS, 1976: In this memoir of first love, twenty-year-old American student Julie Scolnik arrives in the City of Light to study the flute when, from across a sea of faces in the chorus of the Orchestre de Paris, she is drawn to Luc, a striking (married) French lawyer in the bass section.
This moving Paris memoir captures the unfolding story of an ebullient young American and a reserved Frenchman, transporting readers to the cafés, streets, and concert halls of 1970s Paris. Spanning three decades, the story evolves from deep romance to sudden heartbreak, and finally to a lifelong quest for answers to release hidden, immutable grief.
Against a magical backdrop of Paris and classical music, Paris Blue is a true fairy-tale memoir (with a dark underbelly) about the tenacious grip of first love.
Praise for Paris Blue
"Not every true story is like a good novel, but this one is. Not every memoir of first love has a satisfying ending, but this one does. The confluence of first love with becoming an artist makes this memoir special."
- John Irving
