A former NPR and ABC News correspondent and the author of the National Book Critics Circle Award finalist Enemies of the People: My Family's Journey to America, Hungarian-American Kati Marton offers this candid memoir of love, loss, and life after loss, with Paris at its heart. At every stage of her life, Marton has found beauty and excitement in Paris, and after the sudden death of her husband, diplomat Richard Holbrooke, in 2010, the city again gave her a chance for a fresh beginning. With portraits of news anchor Peter Jennings, the man to whom she was married for 15 years and with whom she had two children, and Holbrooke, with whom she found enduring love, Marton chronicles an adventurous life profoundly influenced by history. "Kati Marton has written movingly about her love, loss, and the healing power of an elegant city. She takes readers on a journey, as she writes, to find a place where there is joy in remembered joy."—Diane Sawyer "I stayed up last night and read this book cover to cover. I can't remember the last time I did that. It is wonderful—touching, romantic and honest—and oh, how it made me want to go to Paris!"—Barbara Walters
