Countering the traditional narrative that Paris' public landscape became sterile and dehumanized in the 1940s and '50s, this book instead finds that the city's streets overflowed with ritual, drama, and spectacle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A superb book filled with erudition. The brio of the writing conveys Wakeman's passion for her topic, which is all to the good since Paris is so personal a subject.
