Book Synopsis
French-American journalist Cole Stangler argues that the beating heart of the City of Light lies in the striving, working-class districts, where residents are now being priced out. Stangler brings the real Paris to life, combining gripping, street-level reportage, stories of today’s working-class Parisians, recent history and a sweeping analysis of the larger forces shaping the city.

Trade Review
‘A helpful reflection on contemporary France … Stangler takes us on a journey through the capital to see the city for ourselves. He walks the streets of La Goutte d’Or as a way of highlighting the contribution of immigrants to the fabric of the city, and he uses his visit to a squat in Montreuil to reflect on the material conditions in which the creative arts can flourish … [Paris isn’t Dead Yet] has a plausible and welcome humility'. -- Emile Chabal
