Paris Nights And Other Impressions Of Places And People

In this book, the author takes us on a journey through the early 1910s, a time when Europe was alive with excitement and anticipation. From the vibrant streets of Paris and the elegant charm of London, to the rugged beauty of the Swiss Alps and the rolling hills of Italy, the author shares his personal experiences and insights into each destination. As war looms on the horizon, the essays offer a unique glimpse into a world on the brink of change. With vivid descriptions and colorful anecdotes, this book is a must-read for anyone with a passion for travel and a love of history.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

First published in 1913, this volume contains insightful notes and sketches by the author of the people and places of various places in Europe, including France, England, Italy, and Switzerland. Enoch Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was an English writer. Although he is perhaps best remembered for his popular novels, Bennett also produced work in other areas including the theatre, propaganda, journalism, and film. Other notable works by this author include: “Helen with a High Hand” (1910), “The Card” (1911), and “Hilda Lessways” (1911). Contents include: “Paris Nights: 1910”, “Life in London: 1911”, “Italy: 1910”, “The Riviera: 1907”, “Fontainebleau: 1904-1909”, “Switzerland: 1909-1911”, “England Again: 1907”, “The Midlands 1910-1911”, “The British Home: 1908”, “Streets, Roads and Train: 1907-1909”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an essay from F. J. Harvey Darton's 1915 book, “Arnold Bennet”.

Paris Nights is a collection of short stories united by the theme of “fireplace stories” told in the cozy living room of a hostel. It’s where at night, people who come from all over the world to Paris, and are imbued with the romance and sensuality of this city, begin to share the most unusual or ordinary love stories and experiences. We are not just storytellers. We are listeners, partners in some way, discussing, prompted by, and sharing our experience if there is something in the story that’s consonant with our past. That is why this book is valuable. Everyone will find here one or more stories that would remind him of his own experience and, perhaps, prompt a brilliant solution for the situation. This book brings hope to all those people who have lost faith in love and its magic, who stopped believing in their own strengths and good luck.
