In the wake of a life-changing loss, one man’s life is irrevocably changed when he decides to follow his fascination with 1920s Paris all the way to the City of Light. With tremendous warmth and sincerity, A New Season by the award-winning author, Terry Fallis is a clarion call to follow the whims and wishes of the heart … it just may save your life.

It is also a love-song to literature as he traces the inspiration that Paris provided to literary masters like Hemingway and Fitzgerald, and that Fallis found amongst their pages.
