Recently I asked the author about what she was reading. Her reply:
I recently finished Ann Mah’s phenomenal Jacqueline in Paris, a meticulously researched novel that tells the story of the yearVisit Tasha Alexander's website.Jacqueline Bouvier spent in Paris as a college student. Mah brings post-war Paris to life, contrasting its bullet-riddled buildings and grimy façades with the city’s elegant beauty. An endlessly talented writer, she immerses the reader in Jacqueline’s world. Student cafés, politics, and the struggles of those who suffered during the war draw you in, while Mah’s expertly drawn and fully realized characters make you want to stay with them long after you’ve closed the book.
