Paris Escapade

"Ted Myers has the ability to put you right in the action. And I was not bored for a single page." -L. S. Popovich, author of Undertones and The Arden

In the summer of 1963, seventeen-year-old Eddie Strull goes off to Europe with a supervised camp group of New York Jewish kids. But Eddie, ever the rebel, has other plans. Eddie wants to live as an adult. A writer. Right now. When they arrive in Paris, the last stop before heading home, Eddie sneaks out of the youth hostel and disappears into the bohemian labyrinth of the Left Bank. There he encounters a colorful array of artists, writers, actors, and one extraordinary prostitute, who draws him into a risky adventure.

Ultimately, he becomes a wanted man. Instant adulthood turns out to be much more than Eddie bargained for.
