Description: As I headed off to sleep, I focused on my new long-term life in France. How many years would I stay? How would my parents take the news? Would I be in Paris for life? When a chance friendship offered him the trip of a lifetime, a twenty-one-year-old Barry Frangipane swapped the familiar beaches of Florida for the passion of 1970's Paris. What followed was a year of learning the language, showering in the kitchen (you read that right), escaping a terrorist bombing, and working on the frontlines of the burgeoning personal tech industry. All while slowly falling for the girl who'd invited him there - a love that was to remain entwined with Paris forever. In this warmly nostalgic and sharply witty memoir, Barry weaves surprising historical insights through his fondest memories -past and present - of the City of Light. From the pastries to the politics, the cafes to the cathedrals, Paris for Life is an examination of what it means to be wholly captivated by a city and eternally changed by its lessons.
