When writer Ricky Opaterny turned 30, he decided to go back to France, where he had been living 10 years earlier when he turned 20. This book is a document of things he saw during that trip—moments that will never happen again. It is one person's attempt to capture what it feels like to be in France—the country's people, tone, and mood.

Includes 25 black and white photographs and 44 color photographs.
