Julie Scolnik

(Sorry, I don't use Goodreads much!)

Paris Blue, Julie Scolnik’s debut memoir, is a story which lingered in the corridors of her psyche for more than forty years, and one which she always knew she would have to tell. Set against a magical backdrop of classical music and Paris in the late 70’s, Paris Blue is a true fairy-tale memoir (with a dark underbelly) about the tenacious grip of first love, heartache, and the role of memory in our lives. It has garnered over 18 awards and a quote from John Irving: Not every true story is like a good novel, but this one is. Not every memoir of first love has a satisfying ending, but this one does. The confluence of first love with becoming an artist makes this memoir special.”
