About This Book

Un viajero español relata sus impresiones de París durante una estancia de aprendizaje, organizando apuntes en secciones sobre el paisaje moral y lo curioso de la ciudad, con reseñas de monumentos, costumbres, modas y escenas cotidianas. Combina descripción de lugares y paseos con juicios sobre maneras francesas, la frivolidad y la apariencia social; ofrece anécdotas y observaciones sinceras y a veces mordaces, procurando registrar con ingenuidad lo que ve, siente y piensa para presentar un retrato directo y personal de la urbe y sus hábitos.
