París
brianna says:
An excellent read covering centuries of life in Paris & beyond. The story deals with several families that intersect over the course of time with the background of the French history. It was interesting to read about the growth of Paris from 11th century to the 20th. Many of the characters were so compelling that I didn't want their stories to end and would have read about future generations as well. Having visited Paris several times, it was interesting learning about the histor...y behind street names, neighborhoods & other places of interest. Well worth investing the time to read this lengthy novel.

A previous review mentioned that, as a guide book this is a 4, but as a novel it's a 2. I must say that I almost agree. It's not my favorite by Rutherfurd, but it was an interesting introduction to French history. The chronology is out of order, which I didn't particularly care for at first. Once I got about 150-200 pages in, though, I really began to enjoy the characters and the evolution of the city in which they live.MoreLess
