Description

By walking from the south of Paris, Ivry, to its north, Saint-Denis, Éric Hazan awakes remembrance of his Parisian life and memories of historical incidents piled in this city. But the areas of modern Paris from the Left Bank to Les Halles lose working-class and intellectual vitality because of neo-liberal renovation and embourgeoisement. On the contrary, from Saint-Denis street to the north, the tenth and eighteenth arrondissements, by its working-class animation in ethnical areas of Africans, Kurdishes, Tamils and Arabs prove that Paris dose not yet become a museum like Venice. In opposition to anti-immigrants discourses in modern France, Hazan attestes their charm, gentleness and tenderness.
