The Manuel Of Saint-Germain-Des-Pres

Complemented by two hundred evocative period photographs, an English translation of the classic account of Paris in the 1950s explores the Left Bank caf廥, galleries, underground jazz clubs, theaters, and salons that were home to the existentialist and post-surrealistic circles of the era, with portraits of Jean Cocteau, Jean Genet, Miles Davis, and Jean-Paul Sartre, among others.
