A flâneuse is, in Lauren Elkin’s words, “a determined resourceful woman keenly attuned to the creative potential of the city, and the liberating possibilities of a good walk.” Virginia Woolf called it “streethaunting,” Holly Golightly epitomized it in Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and Patti Smith did it in her own inimitable style in 1960s New York.
Part cultural meander, part memoir, Flâneuse traces the relationship between singular women and their cities as a way to map her own life―a journey that begins in New York and takes us to Paris, via Venice, Tokyo, and London―including the paths beaten by such flâneuses as the cross-dressing, nineteenth-century novelist George Sand, the Parisian artist Sophie Calle, the journalist Martha Gellhorn, and the writer Jean Rhys. With tenacity and insight, Elkin creates a mosaic of what urban settings have meant to women, charting through literature, art, history, and film women’s sometimes liberating, sometimes fraught relationship to the metropolis.

其实是很漂亮的写作啊。
评分R4 read by Julianna Jennings,朗读噎的慌,差评。Woolf, George Sand, Sophie Calle. 一个米国人通过不懈努力和代入十余载终成巴黎女人的励志故事。阅毕。
评分这本意外也四天就听完了,可能女性朗读者真的比较容易听进去。题材选得很好,涵盖了Virginia Woolf, George Sand, Sophie Calle, Martha Gellhorn, Agnes Varda等各个女性艺术家as flâneuse,文笔也是好的,但是作者太自我中心了,越听到后面越厌倦,尤其是对东京的expat视角,一个不喜欢brooklyn的长岛人,一个写到巴黎只知道写5/6区的人实在太没有探索精神了,和书的主题简直背道而驰。结果发现是我校的比较文学博士,why am I not surprised (wink).
