Synopsis

Diplomat, writer and poet, traveller and socialite, friend of Proust, Giraudoux, and Malraux, Paul Morand was out of the most original writers of the twentieth century. He was French literature's globetrotter, and his delightful autobiography is far from being yet another account of a writer's life. Instead it is a poetic evocation of certain scenes among Morand's rich and varied encounters and experience, filtered through the one constant in his life, the one place to which he would always return: Venice.
