MILES MARSHALL LEWIS

Writer, Editor, Expatriate, Bohemian B-Boy www.furthermucker.com



Miles was born in The Bronx, New York, at the beginning of hip hop culture in the early 1970s. He expatriated from the United States to Paris, France during 2004 in response to the Iraq War. His debut essay collection, "Scars of the Soul Are Why Kids Wear Bandages When They Don't Have Bruises" (2004) – a book described as “an observant and urbane B-boy’s rites of passage” – established him as a prose stylist observing American culture in a style directly influenced by Joan Didion, mixing personal reflection with social analysis and humor.


Miles’s second book, "There’s a Riot Goin’ On" (2006), deals with the making of the seminal 1971 album of the same name by Sly and the Family Stone, and the death of the 1960s counterculture. Lewis is the founder and editor of the literary journal Bronx Biannual. He and his French wife Christine Herelle-Lewis live together in France raising their sons, Lucas and Kalel


In 2007, Miles launched Furthermucker.com, where he blogs regularly about the arts, pop culture, hip-hop culture, and his experiences as a black American expatriate in 21st-century Paris.


It's €20.00 at the door. Reservations with your telephone number (Thanks!) on parissoirees@gmail.com or telephone 33 6 43 79 35 18. (Sundays telephone only.) If you emailed me but didn't hear back, please call.

19h15 - 23h00ish

Our Guest of Honor


Pamela Grant

Tour Guide. Art Historian

Founder of Paris Perspectives


"Ernest Hemingway's Paris: The Paris Of The Lost Generation. More Great Stories."

Ernest Hemingway, a giant of 20th century American literature (a Nobel Prize winner), learned much of his skill here in Paris mingling with the Personalities of the day such as Gertrude Stein, James Joyce and Ezra Pound. Many of his books and short stories are rich in Paris references, most notably “The Sun Also Rises” and “A Moveable Feast”. He was the quintessential American .expatriate of the 1920s. Pamela Grant will present Hemingway's early period in Paris when he lived in the Mouffetard district and Montparnasse. He spent about 7 years there and managed to publish a bestseller “The Sun Also Rises” in 1926 (nearly calling it “The Lost Generation” - a term coined by fellow Paris expat Gertrude Stein to describe World War I Veterans ). The indelible mark that he left on this mythic city has drawn many of us to Paris in search of the Hemingway myth that he spawned nearly a century ago. We'll hear more great stories about who we think of as being :special personalities of a special era

About Pamela Grant: After graduating from Vassar College with a degree in Art History, Pam came to France over 15 years ago to pursue French studies. The "endless beauty and history" of the “City of Light” drew her in. She passed the rigorous French national guide exam and has been leading groups on historic and thematic tours of Paris for over 10 years. Her other passion is writing. Specializing in the film industry, she recently adapted “La Vie en Rose” into English. Hemingway and the Lost Generation is one of her favorite tours.

Our Guest Of Honor


David Henry


Photographer



From David: “I photograph people interacting or in conflict. I find my subjects in public places: fairs, rush hour crowds, subways, and parks. My ideal photo frames an action, a moment of decision being played out on a stage. They capture the element that makes the most ordinary of moments suddenly look unusual, somewhat transcendental, but still pleasant to look at. I am always looking for irony, both dramatic and visual.


Since the mid-1980s I’ve been taking more photographs of homeless people. For me, the daily lives of these people are emblematic of the shift in political and social morals that occured in the United States at the beginning of the 1980s and continues today. My photographs are a form of biography, telling stories about these and other people’s lives. Viewers’ reactions vary widely—shock, denial, revulsion, morbid curiosity, amusement"
David is famous for his photography courses to individuals and groups.. http://www.davidphenry.com


A fun evening, especially for those who love Paris! --- It's €20.00 at the door. Reservations with your telephone number (Thanks!) on parissoirees@gmail.com or telephone 33 6 43 79 35 18.
