Jacqueline in Paris : a novel

Mah, Ann2022
Books, Manuscripts
In 1949, twenty-year-old Jacqueline Bouvier arrives in postwar Paris for a year abroad, eager to escape societal expectations before settling into a conventional future. Immersed in a world of art, jazz, and romance, she falls for a young writer her mother would disapprove of. Living with a family marked by the French Resistance, she witnesses a city still reeling from war, rife with spies and political unrest. As communism rises in France, Jacqueline’s experiences shape her worldview and future. Jacqueline in Paris by Ann Mah vividly reimagines the formative year that influenced the iconic First Lady’s life and love for France.
