Dispelling the myth that there is only one type of Parisian woman, In Paris is made up of profiles of twenty different Parisiennes aged from 14 to70, living in tiny studios or grand apartments, giving us a rare glimpse into their world: their homes, their careers, their style, and, most importantly, what being Parisian means to them"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>If the Internet could create its version of the perfect girl, Jeanne Damas would probably be her. . . .
