Paris. The beauty. The grime. The colours and thoughts and songs and sounds and children and dogs. The taste of strawberries, the sky, first métro, last métro, the bells, the dreams …
 
The city of light, it seems, has its own plans for Jayne Tuttle. Drawn there in an entirely unforeseen  way, she finds herself in a vibrant and dizzying neighbourhood, living in a former monastery,  studying at a famous theatre school, falling in  love with a Frenchman too beautiful to be real. She will forget her past and disappear into the culture if it kills her. And one strange night, it nearly does. 

Sharp, funny and unflinchingly honest,  Jayne Tuttle’s writing lifts you off the page and into a Paris far beyond the postcards. Paris or Die is a headlong plunge into not just life in Paris, but life itself.

Join Jayne to celebrate the launch of Paris or Die
