Thanks for the recommendation! Sounds like a great book.

Small nitpick: you write that Janet Flanner wrote dispatches from Paris for The New Yorker magazine "from the 1920s into the 1940s." I remember reading her pieces well into the 1970s. And Wikipedia confirms that she wrote them "from 1925 until she retired in 1975." (She lived 1892-1978.)
