Rosemary Flannery’s Angels of Paris


I love this book! Each entry is an angel sculpture location in Paris. Each entry comes with a photo, the address and metro, architectural description of the building and timeline history. “Angels of Paris” is a compact, easy to carry reference and guide

book. Next to my bed, I can read a different angel story each night. At a book signing for the release of the new French edition clothed in red, I picked up an English version as a gift to take to the States. My resistance and absorption was complete. With an email to Rosemary, I was meeting her for a signed copy of my own at her favorite café, Illy on rue Auber.
In an interview with Judy MacMahon of My French Life™, Rosemary said her interest in angels was piqued by a huge angel atop a tall column in the Parc Montsouris, near where she used to live. She then began to notice many different types of angels illustrated in architecture all over Paris. Her favorite angels are the four musicians that flank the entrance of the of what was a medieval auberge (small hotel and restaurant) in the Marais.
