From Library Journal:
French writer Soupault (1897-1990) was a prominent member of the Surrealist movement until he was expelled in 1926 for refusing to toe the party line. This short novel appeared two years later and was translated by American poet William Carlos Williams the year after that. It follows the wanderings of a nameless narrator who sees Paris "for the first time" through his obsession with a young streetwalker and who witnesses the aftermath of a grisly crime. Last Nights of Paris is mildly mysterious, but its attraction for modern readers may be that of a charming period piece, a relic of an age that was more easily shocked and thrilled than ours. Buy accordingly.
