From One Paris Journalist to Another
New book reconnects former NYT Paris bureau chief with a 19th century street reporter.
The reviews for Elaine Sciolino’s new book The Only Street in Paris: Life on the Rue des Martyrs have been solid. In this coming weekend’s Sunday Book Review, Kate Betts, the author of a separate 2015 City of Lights valentine, adds her voice of approval to the chorus.
Sciolino had a long career with The New York Times, starting in 1984. She served as U.N. bureau chief, CIA correspondent and Paris bureau chief. The premise of her latest book is to tell the story of Paris by focusing on a half-mile stretch of street in the ninth arrondissement frequented over the years by everyone from painter Paul Cézanne to filmmaker Francois Truffaut.
