SUMMARY:Elaine Sciolino in Conversation with Thad Carhart
DESCRIPTION:Elaine Sciolino in Conversation with Thad Carhart\n\n\n\n\n(and introduced by L. John Harris) discussing Sciolino’s new book The Seine: The River that Made Paris. \nA soulful\, transformative voyage along the body of water that defines the City of Light. Elaine Sciolino is the perfect guide to the world’s most romantic river.”–Lauren Collins \nTo reserve your seat\, please purchase a copy of The Seine by speaking to a bookseller or clicking on the cover. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\nThursday\, November 21\, 2019 – 7:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\nElaine Sciolino came to Paris as a young foreign correspondent and was seduced by a river. In The Seine\, she tells the story of that river from its source on a remote plateau of Burgundy to the wide estuary where its waters meet the sea\, and the cities\, tributaries\, islands\, ports\, and bridges in between. \nSciolino explores the Seine through its rich history and lively characters: a bargewoman\, a riverbank bookseller\, a houseboat dweller\, a famous cinematographer known for capturing the river’s light. She discovers the story of Sequana–the Gallo-Roman healing goddess who gave the Seine its name–and follows the river through Paris\, where it determined the city’s destiny and now snakes through all aspects of daily life. She patrols with river police\, rows with a restorer of antique boats\, sips champagne at a vineyard along the river\, and even dares to go for a swim. She finds the Seine in art\, literature\, music\, and movies from Renoir and Les Misérables to Puccini and La La Land. Along the way\, she reveals how the river that created Paris has touched her own life. A powerful afterword tells the dramatic story of how water from the depths of the Seine saved Notre-Dame from destruction during the devastating fire in April 2019. \nElaine Sciolino is a contributing writer and former Paris bureau chief for the New York Times. She is the author of five books\, including The Seine\, The Only Street in Paris and La Seduction. Sciolino was decorated as a chevalier of the Legion of Honor\, the highest honor of the French state\, in 2010 for her “special contribution” to the friendship between France and the United States. She and her husband have lived in Paris since 2002. \nThad Carhart is the author of The Piano Shop on the Left Bank and Finding Fontainebleau. A resident of Paris for 25 years\, he now lives in San Francisco. \nL. John Harris is the author/illustrator of Cafe French. He lives in Berkeley. \n  \n\n\n\n\nEvent address:\n\n\n\n2904 College Avenue\n\nBerkeley\, CA 94705
