PARIS IS A CELEBRATION.
THAT'S THE FREN MPCH TITLE OF 
HEMMINGWAY'S CLASSIC.
MORE THAN 50 YEARS AFTER IT WAS 
PUBLISHED IT'S A BEST SELLER IN 
FRANCE.
THE BOOK IS AN ODE TO PARIS.
WALKING ITS BOULEVARD'S.
WE ATE WELL AND DRANK WELL 
CHEAPLY AND SLEPT TOGETHER 
WARMLY AND LOVED EACH OTHER.
THIS WOMAN IN AN INTERVIEW 
THAT'S BEEN WIDELY SHARED 
INVOKED THE BOOK AS A SYMBOL OF 
FRENCH IDENTITY.
WE ARE AN ANCIENT CIVILIZATION 
WITNESS STAND WE WILL HOLD HIGH 
THE BANNER OF OUR VALUES.
THE CITY OF LIGHT FELT DARK THIS
WEEK BUT PARIS ENDURES.
THIS WEEKEND ITS RESIDENTS 
FILLED THE BISTROS EATING AND 
DRINKING IN CHEERFUL DEFIANCE OF
THE TERRORISTS WHO MURDERED 
PEOPLE FOR DOING JUST THAT.
IF YOU'RE LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE 
LIVED IN PARIS AS A LOVE MAN, 
WHERE EVER YOU GO, IT
