I originally downloaded a sample to my kindle but decided to purchase hardback due to its photo content. Unfortunately, pale grey print on white paper does not work for me and I was unable to actually read this book.
The book was smaller than I thought; more large fiction size than coffee-table. The paper quality was poor; a matt finish which dulled the photos.
Due to the undersized, unreadable font, I returned the book. Amazon's refund system is easy, fast and efficient.

Product description
Review
"The author's vibrant and precise command of English frames this lively collection of insights about cultural change and stories regarding multiple chefs and merchants... Will it succeed? Obviously. After reading only two chapters, I booked a train ticket to Montparnasse station."
--Forbes
"[Tramuta] knows the new Paris better than most Parisians." --The San Francisco Chronicle
"As a native Parisian, I read through Lindsey's book and let out an enthusiastic, 'FINALLY!' Finally, a talented writer who successfully captures the complexity and richness of contemporary Paris, debunking the tired clichés and celebrating the exciting diversity of the city. For anyone looking to discover the real Paris beyond the postcard imagery, this book is a must-have."--Clotilde Dusoulier, author of The French Market Cookbook and the blog Chocolate and Zucchini
"As the culinary scene in Paris evolves, a new palate of flavors and styles of eating have emerged, redefining what is "French cuisine." The New Paris documents these changes through the lens of bakers, coffee roasters, ice cream makers, chefs, and even food truck owners. A thoughtful, and delicious, look at how Paris continues to delight and excite the palates of visitors and locals."--David Lebovitz, author of My Paris Kitchen
"In her debut book The New Paris, she draws back the curtain on the city's hipper, more happening side--as obsessed with coffee, creativity, and brunch as Brooklyn or Berlin. True to the priorities of Lindsey's adopted homeland, more than half of the book focuses on--what else? Food."
--My Little Paris
"In her new book, Francophile Lindsey Tramuta captures the heart of the modern French city."
--Domino.com
"Lindsey Tramuta deftly redirects Paris's iconic light, illuminating its surprising future and the rising stars who will define it."--Nichole Robertson, author of Paris in Color
"Nobody gets Paris like Lindsey Tramuta. This deeply felt, beautifully wrought book is as essential to understanding its new energy as your passport."--Lauren Collins, author of When in French and staff writer at The New Yorker
"What Lindsey has shown is that Paris is eternal, and what is classic and old can be new again, excite and stimulate us, influence and challenge us, transform us, make us young and revitalized all over again. Bravo!"--Patricia Wells, author of The Food Lover's Guide to Paris
"Whether you live in Paris, know it well, visit rarely, or only dream of the city, Lindsey Tramuta's gorgeous book will make you see Paris in a new way. Here's your chance to meet the people who are setting today's standards on the food scene, changing the way we drink everything--from craft beer to coffee--enjoy pastries, and even shop for our homes. Lindsey's research into the city's revolution is our revelation."--Dorie Greenspan, award-winning author of Around My French Table and Dorie's Cookies

Beautifully written with gorgeous photography
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 May 2018Verified Purchase
I love this book! I learned about it through the mysterious meandering magic of Instagram. And I bought it because I was curious what someone would have to say about what's new and fresh about a city I love visiting. I was not expecting such an amazing book.
The exploration of the changing scenes of food, coffee, patisserie, cocktails, shopping and more is so well researched and well written that it's joy to read. There's plenty of gorgeous photography to feed our now insatiable appetite for imagery. It's so much more than a travel guide; it's an insight to the evolution of Paris through each of these lenses. And as a bonus you learn about all the interesting and forward thinking renegades dragging a traditional culture into the future.
I used it to help plan my most recent visit to Paris and it was a faithful advisor to a wonderful experience. I'm looking forward to another visit to continue to explore the New Paris that is there to be discovered.
Worthy of each of the 5 stars.

Reviewed in Canada on 3 October 2017Verified Purchase
Lindsey has captured a pivotal moment in Parisian life, just at the right time, and has done so brilliantly. The sense of the replacing of the old guard with fresh, vibrant, young talent could not have been captured better. As we travel to Paris every year, the feeling is palpable but beautifully expressed in this lovely book. I can't recommend it highly enough, even if the reader simply wants to dip into it or live vicariously in the City of Light.
