The Parisian | Isabella Hammad

What happens when you combine a romantic fiction with a political non-fiction? The answer is The Parisian by Isabella Hammad. It’s a vivid combination of romantic saga, historical fiction, domestic thriller, and political non-fiction.

But what I found most interesting was what happened between these two summers, 1988 and 2020, that I think is the most unmissable part of this novel. […]
