The Paris she keeps on the coffee table.

A photography book of Paris, the kind that puts you on the cobblestones outside the boulangerie at 7am. The dust motes in the light at the Musée Bourdelle. The marble at the Tuileries. The kind of book a friend opens before she's seen the cover, just to look at the city for a minute. A wedding gift, a hostess gift, a francophile birthday gift, a housewarming gift for the apartment with the empty space on the coffee table.

For the friend who needs Paris on a Wednesday afternoon. For the Francophile. For the host with the empty space on the coffee table.
