--Lauren Elkin, author of Flâneuse

--Eleanor Beardsley, NPR Paris correspondent

"Some of my favorite Parisiennes are in this book. Lindsey Tramuta beautifully gives a voice to a very rich and diverse set of women who make Paris the incredible place it is today. This book is precious: It shatters the tired cliché of the white and skinny Parisian."
--Aida Alami, journalist and contributor to the New York Times and Our Women on the Ground

"Want to know what real Parisian women are like? Read this book. Lindsey Tramuta rips the corset off the notion that all Parisiennes are thin, white, and casually elegant in a way no other women in the world can be. She gives us real Parisiennes: feisty, smart, ethnically diverse, passionately engaged in their work. And she tells us where to find their favorite spots in a city that is far more interesting and dynamic than the stale images peddled to tourists and global consumers."

"Lindsey Tramuta's ongoing project to chronicle and distinguish the living and evolving Paris from the memory museum it competes with is as ambitious as it is infectious. Here she narrows her focus to one of France's most enduring and alluring clichés: the Parisian woman. The New Parisienne radically reintroduces--and humanizes--this impossible icon in all of her complexity, as she really lives today. Spoiler alert: She is someone you will want to get to know."--Thomas Chatterton Williams, author of Self-Portrait in Black and White --This text refers to the hardcover edition.
