Edmund White has just met you at a party and he's going to tell you about a friend. But his 'friend' is one of the greatest cities in the world, beloved by many and yet really known by only a few. And he is one of those few. -Alexander Chee Edmund White's New York Times bestselling guided sojourn through the streets of Paris, with a new foreword by Alexander Chee. Legendary paterfamilias of queer literature Edmund White lived in Paris for sixteen years, wandering the streets and avenues and quays of his favorite city. In The Flâneur he leads us on a walking tour of Paris' lush, sometimes prurient history, to parts of the city virtually unknown to visitors and indeed to many Parisians. This twenty-fifth anniversary edition celebrates the City of Light and the fearless wit and panache of one of its greatest devotees. "A Paris you wouldn't otherwise see." -New York Times Book Review
Edmund White (1940-2025) authored more than thirty works of fiction, memoir, and nonfiction, including the novels A Boy's Own Story, Our Young Man, and The Humble Lover; the memoirs City Boy, Inside a Pearl, and The Unpunished Vice; The Flâneur, a tour through Paris; the literary biographies Genet and Rimbaud; and many more. His most recent work, the sexual autobiography The Loves of My Life, was a New York Times Editors' Choice. He received the PEN/Saul Bellow Award for Achievement in American Fiction and the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters from the National Book Foundation.
