The Paris Hours, conjuring the tumultuous atmosphere of Paris in the Roaring Twenties, introduces four fascinating narrators. Souren, a puppet maker who fled the Armenian genocide, wanders the streets seeking atonement for some secret guilt. Guillaume, a painter dogged by murderous loan sharks, hopes to reunite with a woman he once loved. Jean-Paul, a journalist, searches for his missing daughter. And Camille, former housemaid to the novelist Marcel Proust, seeks a notebook that conceals a devastating secret. The story of their crossing paths is tense, lyrical, and completely gripping.
