About this item
by Francis Carco (Author), Rob Couteau (Author), Christopher Sawyer-Laucanno (Author)
In From Montmartre to the Latin Quarter, Francis Carco evokes the rich, hallucinatory marvels of Montmartre, Montparnasse, and the Latin Quarter during the 1910s and early Twenties. The work also serves as a poignant memorial to all those artists and writers who were sacrificed during the Great War, their young, promising lives nipped in the bud before they reached their highest potential. From Montmartre to the Latin Quarter is a record of deep friendship in which memory serves as the most potent talisman of the heart. This newly revised edition features Rob Couteau's in-depth Introduction and over 300 annotations that serve to greatly expand the context of this lively chronicle. It also features a poignant Afterword titled "Francis Carco's Complexity" by the author Christopher Sawyer-Lauçanno. In 1922, Carco was awarded Le Grand Prix du Roman for his novel L'Homme traqué ("The Hunted Man"), and in 1937 he was elected to the Académie Goncourt.
