This debut novel by Samuel M. Steward captures the social dynamics and intimate moments of Parisian society through a series of interlocking narratives set in elegant domestic spaces. The hardcover binding features striking Art Deco typography in coral and black, with an illustration that evokes the sophisticated interiors and fashionable figures of the period.
Circa 1984, this work represents a modernist approach to the novel of manners, drawing on the author's firsthand experience in European literary circles. Steward's prose style reflects the urbane sensibility of mid-twentieth-century American letters, exploring themes of identity and social belonging through the lens of expatriate life in France.
