Part rom com, part travel memoir, this is one woman's story of losing her heart and her head (almost quite literally) in Paris
In Paris Or Die, Jayne Tuttle is a young Australian in Paris. Living in a converted seventeenth-century monastery and studying at a prestigious theatre school, she is trying to escape the pain of a loss back home by immersing herself in the city’s extremes.
The beauty. The grime. The madness and humour, the sights and songs, the streets turning white overnight. A friendship with a flamboyant artist. A relationship with a Frenchman too beautiful to be real.
Nothing in her Paris seems to follow rhyme or reason – not her heart, her thoughts or the course of events. And least of all the bizarre accident that nearly ends it all when she narrowly avoid decapitation in a lift shaft...
Jayne Tuttle’s memoir vibrates with a rawness and immediacy that lifts you off the page and into a Paris beyond the postcards. Warm, funny and uncompromising, Paris or Dierevels in the highs and lows of life in the City of Light.
