description: Avant-Guide books live at the intersection of travel and style. Thorough and trustworthy, they feature dynamic prose, innovative design, and a brutally honest cosmopolitan perspective. Each new title in this boutique guidebook series is comprehensive in scope and includes authoritative reports on essential sights, as well as reviews of hip new restaurants, nightclubs, and hotels. From the Right Bank of the Seine, known for cabarets and panache, to the more bohemian Left Bank, with its famous cafes, universities, and art-house cinemas, the revised Avant-Guide Paris offers an in-depth exploration of the city's distinctive arrondissements. The guide covers "crucial Paris" - the best specialty museums, the "major shoppinghoods," the restaurant scene, daytrips to Versailles and Fontainebleau, and more. Entertaining features and original interviews with artists, musicians, filmmakers, chefs, fashion designers, and others offer the inside scoop on the city's cutting edge. Thoroughly tested full-color city, regional, and transport maps are included.
