Product Information

FINALIST FOR THE PEN/DIAMONSTEIN-SPIELVOGEL AWARD FOR THE ART OF THE ESSAY A New York Times Notable Book of 2017 The fl neur is the quintessentially masculine figure of privilege and leisure who strides the capitals of the world with abandon. But it is the fl neuse who captures the imagination of the cultural critic Lauren Elkin. In her wonderfully gender-bending new book, the fl neuse is a "determined, resourceful individual keenly attuned to the creative potential of the city and the liberating possibilities of a good walk." Virginia Woolf called it "street haunting"; Holly Golightly epitomized it in Breakfast at Tiffany's ; and Patti Smith did it in her own inimitable style in 1970s New York. Part cultural meander, part memoir, Fl neuse takes us on a distinctly cosmopolitan jaunt that begins in New York, where Elkin grew up, and transports us to Paris via Venice, Tokyo, and London, all cities in which she's lived. We are shown the paths beaten by such fl neuses as the cross-dressing nineteenth-century novelist George Sand, the Parisian artist Sophie Calle, the wartime correspondent Martha Gellhorn, and the writer Jean Rhys. With tenacity and insight, Elkin creates a mosaic of what urban settings have meant to women, charting through literature, art, history, and film the sometimes exhilarating, sometimes fraught relationship that women have with the metropolis. Called "deliciously spiky and seditious" by The Guardian , Fl neuse will inspire you to light out for the great cities yourself.

Reviews
"Wonderful . . . A joyful genealogy of the female urban walker . . . The book's narrative meanders brilliantly and appropriately across several time periods at once . . . Elkin's flneuse does not simply wander aimlessly, any more than Elkin does herself in this elegant book: she uses her reflection to question, challenge and create anew the life that she observes." --Lara Feigel, The Guardian "Well researched, larded with examples . . . This picaresque account of a picaresque longing successfully paints women back into the city . . . Elkin reboots the appetite to go walking and thinking in the city." --Philippa Stockley, London Evening Standard " Flneuse is not simply a reclaiming of space, but also of a suppressed intellectual and cultural history . . . Finding ways to reframe images of women walking and to reverse male gazes, Flneuse builds on recent work by . . . Rebecca Solnit and the artist Laura Oldfield Ford, among others, with striking intellectual vigour and clear, enrapturing prose." --Sandeep Parmar, Financial Times "An intense meditation on what it means to be a woman and walk out in the world . . . [ Fl neuse ] encourages its readers to lace up their shoes and go for a walk . . . Elkin lets the reader become a companion to many women who have thought seriously about the relationship between a woman and the path she chooses to tread." --Erica Wagner, New Statesman "Engaging, inspiring and vigorous . . . Buy it, read it, talk about it. And carry it with you in your mind when you next go walking in the city." --Matthew Adams, The National, Named one of the Best Books of the Year by the Financial Times Named one of the Best Books of the Year in the New Statesman Named one of the Best Books of the Year in The Guardian "In her richly evocative and absorbing debut, cultural critic Elkin homes in on the female version of the flaneur . . . In this insightful mix of cultural history and memoir, Elkin emerges at the protagonist as she mines her personal journey from the suburbs of Long Island to her current home in Paris." -- Publishers Weekly "An appealing blend of memoir, scholarship, and cultural criticism . . . Elkin''s own story runs through the text like a luminous thread. She tells us the woman-in-the-street stories of Jean Rhys, Virginia Woolf, George Sand, Sophie Calle, Agns Varda, and Martha Gellhorn, but all sorts of other cultural figures appear, including Barthes, Rilke, Baudelaire, Hemingway, Derrida, Dickens, and numerous others . . . Enlightening walks through cities, cultural history, and a writer''s heart and soul." -- Kirkus "This is a book about wandering women, the author included, who build relationships with their cities by walking through them . . . Women can and do make feminist statements simply by strolling through their stomping grounds; Elkin creates an interesting and inarguable case for this. She, too, is a wanderer and provides compelling anecdotes about her own journeys, interspersed with those of literary heavy-hitters George Sand, Jean Rhys, Virginia Woolf, and others . . . This is ultimately a celebration of women. You''ll want to take a stroll by the end." -- Library Journal "Wonderful . . . A joyful genealogy of the female urban walker . . . The book''s narrative meanders brilliantly and appropriately across several time periods at once . . .

And carry it with you in your mind when you next go walking in the city." --Matthew Adams, The National "Deliciously spiky and seditious, [Elkin] takes her readers on a rich, intelligent and lively meander through cultural history, biography, literary criticism, urban topography and memoir . . . I defy anyone to read this celebratory study and not feel inspired to take to the streets in one way or another." --Lucy Scholes, The Observer (London) "A memoir, a travelogue and an eminently likeable work of literary criticism, Flneuse is more like a song sung under Elkin''s breath . . . At its best, her book evokes reading aloud . . . reading your own life through the novels that form part of it."--Gaby Wood, The Daily Telegraph, "In her richly evocative and absorbing debut, cultural critic Elkin homes in on the female version of the flaneur . . . In this insightful mix of cultural history and memoir, Elkin emerges at the protagonist as she mines her personal journey from the suburbs of Long Island to her current home in Paris." -- Publishers Weekly "I''ve been waiting for years to see the history of women walkers in the city added to the critical literature of the flaneur--and here, in Lauren Elkin''s really smart and lovely book, it is." --Vivian Gornick "An appealing blend of memoir, scholarship, and cultural criticism . . . Elkin''s own story runs through the text like a luminous thread.
