Richly illustrated with period photographs, the book features three self-guided walking tours and an annotated index that helps readers connect modern Paris with the city's remarkable literary past. Beyond Hemingway, the guide also explores locations associated with James Joyce, Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Ezra Pound placing Hemingway's Paris within the broader world of the Lost Generation expatriate community. Published in 1989 by Algonquin Books of Chapel Hill, this first edition documents the Paris of the 1920s expatriate literary scene through the lens of Hemingway's own movements through the city the cafes he frequented, the hotels where he lived, the bookshops where he gathered with fellow writers. The walking tours connect readers physically to the streets that shaped A Moveable Feast and The Sun Also Rises. John Leland's guide serves as both a standalone work of Paris literary history and a practical companion for readers visiting the city. The annotated index cross-references Hemingway's own writings with surviving Paris locations, giving the book lasting reference value beyond its use as a walking tour.…

Shipping terms
DOMESTIC SHIPPING:
We offer a choice of media mail (when applicable), first class, priority and/or expedited whenever possible. Choices for shipping methods vary and will appear at checkout (as well as additional opportunities to purchase insurance, extra insurance, etc.). All domestic orders include tracking.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING:
International shipping has become increasingly complex, but we do our best to keep up. If you have any questions regarding shipping to your country, feel free to reach out before you order. We will do our best to give you an exact quote.
All international orders include tracking and insurance. Expedited orders generally ship via USPS, DHL or Priority Mail International depending on the destination. Consolidated shipping is usually via Asendia or a similar, reliable carrier.
**VAT, Fees & Taxes: **
Where your country requires, and when under the value threshold set by your country, VAT is collected at checkout and remitted by the marketplace you ordered through. Any additional fees, duties, or taxes your country or carrier charges upon arrival are the buyer's responsibility (collected by your postal service or carrier when the package is delivered). The one exception is the European Union (see below).
The European Union:
As of 2026, the EU has added a new customs duty on every parcel entering the Union. Because of this, we are now required to prepay all duty and customs (DDP) before shipping, which is why you may notice that our EU rates run significantly higher than other countries. Additionally, on orders over 150 Euros, the full VAT tax due, over and above €150, is most often not collected by marketplaces at checkout. We may contact you through the marketplace you ordered to collect these additional VAT fees before shipping.
Typical speeds:
Although customs and overseas carrier delays sometimes happen and are outside of our control, the following should be a good guide (Business days only). If you need it faster, feel free to reach out. Sometimes we can achieve the “almost” impossible :)
