softcover, PB, 240 x 160 mm, 560 pagina's, NL edition. **NIEUWSTAAT. ISBN 9789464666380. Geen betere lectuur voor in je luie zetel of je hotelkamer, dromend van de volgende dag in het eeuwige Parijs. En dan die adressen opzoeken, de verhalen zinderend door je hoofd. Paris s' veille!" --Johan Op de Beeck "De weelde van weetjes en eruditie maken het Parijs van Dirk Velghe magisch. Zelfs de tragiek lijkt er lichter. Wie nog niet van Parijs houdt, valt ervoor na het lezen van dit boek. 'Ich bin ein Pariser', zou Kennedy gezegd hebben." --Herman Van Rompuy "Velghe toont Parijs als een wervelend, immer onrustig organisme waar zovele wonderlijke levens de geschiedenis kleurden, met verf, met bloed n met inkt."De Morgen, 27 november 2021 In dit boek overtreft de werkelijkheid altijd de fictie, de waarheid altijd de mythe. In hoogst intrigerende en vaak vergeten geschiedenissen zoals 'De zaak-Chanel-Wertheimer', 'De gele trui van Lenin' en 'De verkoop van de Eiffeltoren' komen honderden Parijse zielen weer tot leven achter de gevels, in passages of stegen, op pleinen en langs de avenues en de boulevards van de lichtstad. In De ziel van Parijs proeft de lezer de eigenzinnige oogst van iemand die, na vele seizoenen in zijn lievelingsstad, nog steeds verrukt is door haar vruchten. Dirk Velghe vertelt feiten en verhalen over bijzondere mensen en gebeurtenissen die Parijs inkleurden, soms met verf, soms met bloed. Geschiedenissen zoals alleen een echte Parijzenaar ze kan vertellen. Luchtig maar altijd diep onderbouwd geeft Velghe een geheel nieuwe twist aan de geschiedenis van Parijs. Zijn no-nonsense proza en narratieve flair staan garant voor meeslepende lectuur. 1000 g.…
