Foreign Correspondent: Travels in Paris in the Sixties Book

Disenchanted with his native Ireland Peter Lennon, a novice journalist in the late 1950s, borrowed thirty pounds and headed for Paris to take his chances as a foreign correspondent. The book is his travelogue in time through Paris. It is a personal, worldly and witty account of the events and people - celebrated and obscure - who crossed his path during that most momentous and exciting decade in the city's history. Salvador Dali and Jacques Tati, brutal policemen and corrupt waiters. Algerian terrorists and eccentric landladies - all are subject to Lennon's scrutiny, but perhaps his greatest insights are into Samuel Beckett, whose friendship with Lennon allowed the young journalist unique glimpses into Beckett's character and outlook.Read More
