Analogue Guides are a series of curated city guidebooks featuring high-quality, low-key venues distilled through the lens of the neighborhood. Each neighborhood is complemented by a concise set of sophisticated listings, including restaurants, cafés, bars, hotels, and serendipitous finds, all illustrated with photographs. The listings are supplemented by user-friendly maps to facilitate navigation of the cityscape. By highlighting aspects of the urban patina frequently lost under the corporate veil of large restaurant groups and ubiquitous chains, the mood and feel of each unique city is captured. The result is a compact, efficient manual celebrating the ingenuity of the contemporary metropolis.
Clouded in perfume and with a penchant for champagne and the good things in life, Paris is the grande dame of world cities. For more than two centuries Paris was the intellectual center of the world, as the Age of Enlightenment heralded new literary and artistic movements and the modern language of diplomacy—all set within the scintillating splendor of gilded domes, fussily manicured gardens, and a deep-rooted joie de vivre. Holding on to its prized credentials of luxury and romance, the city has opened itself to the world and even to its peripheral suburbs. The guide ventures to uncover what 21st-century Paris has to offer, from ebullient bars à vins and glam boutiques in the 1st arrondisement to rustic home cooking in the 20th.
