Book excerpt: New Paris York is a love story that explores the histories, cultures, politics, art and architecture of its three geographic locations: Paris, New York and New Mexico. The story begins before the Covid pandemic and continues into the spread of the virus around the world. There’s sexual and romantic intrigue as well. Before meeting Taos Pueblo artist Betty Lujan in New York, history professor Kiloran Hamill has a complicated relationship with a fashion journalist who lives in his East Village building. And Betty is pursued in Paris by a wealthy French high-tech executive who is obsessed with art and with her. As French author Anatole France observed, a tale without romance is like beef without mustard -- an insipid dish.
