Elephants in Paris is Scott Corey's entertaining and insightful account of his life in Paris, France after two years in West Africa. It begins with a French boy in a fringed western jacket, and continues with amusing anecdotes about the eccentric expats, Parisians, and refugees he meets. Each have their own stories that show the comical, outrageous, perilous, and occasionally tragic side of life.

In these pages, readers will see the pearl-colored skies of Paris, the crowded boulevards, sidewalk cafes, old stone bridges, and apartment buildings damp from the rain. They will feel the soft gravel of the Luxembourg Gardens underfoot, sense the wind against their faces as they cross the Pont Neuf, or see friends gathered at a quaint cafe. They will share excellent dinners, such as hot scallop salad, lobster in spinach and mushroom sauce, fresh bread dipped in olive oil and pepper, and red wine.

They may even bump head-first into an elephant, because all things are possible in this French City of Light.
