Knowing Paris submitted by JAI1947 on December 8, 2018, 6:44pm The story line is interesting, however being familiar with Paris would be a big help. If you aren't familiar with Paris, and the many streets and areas mentioned, it takes away from the enjoyment of reading this book. The Paris flood of 2106 was real. The family story is interesting.
