Since its release in 2020 Emily in Paris has received some criticism from journalists and Parisians for being ridiculously unrealistic… nevertheless, its global popularity has established it as a flagship Netflix show, which narrates most entertainingly the fairytale of Emily Cooper, a Millenial/Gen Z American in Paris, played by Lily Collins.

One could say that Emily has the size and charm of Audrey Hepburn and the irreverent style of the girl from Chicago. As her Parisian life unfolds, she seamlessly becomes so chic, and develops an unflappable je ne sais quoi.

The Emily in Paris series is a visual feast that unveils the Parisian codes: must-see iconic sites, trendy ‘m’as-tu vu’ spots, haute couture and snobbery, and, of course, exquisite food!

NB:
References to sex are part of the topic of the book (Emily in Paris series could be considered as the new Sex in the City set in Paris)

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Mathilde Pineau-Valencienne
was born in Paris and raised in both Paris and London.
As a purely bilingual product of the end of the 70s,
she loves a good French/Anglo cultural clash
and relishes in unraveling both cultures’ cliches.
After having lived in Portland USA as a French language assistant at Uni,
she taught French to Americans on her return to Paris
before starting a career in publishing.
She is un-admittedly a huge fan of the Emily in Paris Netflix show
and a connaisseur of Parisian culture and history,
having written The Little Book of Paris published by Welbeck in 2022.
