For a young writer, there are fewer books more helpful than A Moveable Feast (although Rilke’s Letters to a Young Poet does spring to mind). This work is as much a homage to Paris as it is a writer’s manifesto. He recounts meeting many of the greatest names.
Christmas is of course known to bring around a great many things to the people of the world, though one of the slightly less documented is the veritable compendium of ridiculous reasons poor-souls find themselves in the emergency room, resulting from festive catastrophes.
