Description of The Existential Englishman: Paris Among the Artists
Review �If you're interested in art, or writing, or Paris, it will ring bells in your head. I loved it� ?Evening Standard�Peppiatt's account of his bohemian life in Paris is full of colour, character and charm ... Peppiatt has an aesthete's love of life, and there are vivid descriptions of food, drink and romance here that both enrapture and inspire. This enjoyable book works best as an account of a lifelong love affair with the Parisian streets ... The Existential Englishman offers elegant proof that Michael Peppiatt's powers of observation remain undimmed and acute� ?Observer�Being an acute observer and friend of artists, [Peppiatt] shares with them a heightened sensitivity, which leads him to write evocatively about particular memories � Evocative and beautiful prose� ?Literary Review�On the page, [Peppiatt] remains probably one of the most eminent art writers of our time; off it, to judge by the swirl of parties, interviews, and chance encounters that fill this memoir, he is a gifted and indefatigable conversationalist� ?Sunday Telegraph�Engaging ... Peppiatt's passion for Paris, and his clear perception of its innumerable atmospheres � The personal story is sharpened by a judicious use of the present tense, but it is enhanced above all by a historical vision which enables Michael Peppiatt to paint the characters of several quartiers with archaeological precision. Even readers unacquainted with the city should be charmed by his portrait� ?Times Literary Supplement�Brings [Paris] to life so vividly you can almost smell it ... Tr�s dr�le� ?Daily Telegraph�One of the best art books I have read, by turns atmospheric and waspishly gossipy but also profound and poignant� ?Praise for Francis Bacon in Your Blood, Michael Prodger, The Times�This vivid new memoir by the artist's prot�g� is set to be a classic� ?Praise for Francis Bacon in Your Blood, Sunday Telegraph�The best art memoir published in years ... it is personal, subjective and sufficiently scurrilous� ?Praise for Francis Bacon in Your Blood, Spectator Read more About the Author Michael Peppiatt has been writing about art and artists since 1964, when he began reviewing exhibitions for the Observer while still a student.
