Women's Fiction
A chic peek at the glittering inhabitants of Paris's most
exclusive neighborhood
With the sting of a good
Camembert, Kate Muir's fiction debut is a sophisticated,
fun, and delightfully ironic look at family life, Left Bank
style. Olivier and Madison Malin are the toasts of Rive
Gauche. A philosopher and media personality, Olivier is the
darling of the Paris cafés with his perfectly tousled hair
and mistress de jour on speed dial. An American film star
turned Parisian "It" girl, Madison busies herself playing
the part of the bon vivant. But when a crisis occurs with
their daughter, these self-centered parents are forced to
focus on something more than their own reflections. Left
Bank is at once a delicious satire of Parisian
pretension and a celebration of the city's alluring glamour.
