Description

Paris Vagabond is an unflinching account of life on the streets of post-war Paris. Jean-Paul Clébert's memoir, assembled from sketches and notes made during his time as a vagabond, offers a raw and celebratory portrayal of a city and its inhabitants.

The result is a unique blend of prose and photography, with long, looping sentences that capture the spirit of the city. Praised on publication by notable figures in the literary world, Paris Vagabond has become a manual for living off the grid, embracing the freedom and uncertainty of life on the streets.

With its starkly striking photographs and unvarnished prose, this book is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era. It's a testament to Clébert's literary improvisation and his ability to find beauty in the most unexpected places.
