"I’d never found a travel guide that strikes just the right balance between tourist and insider — until I threw Marin Montagut’s “Bonjour Paris” and “Bonsoir Paris” into my carry-on at the last minute before taking a trip there last month. They’re folding, pocket-size compendiums of all of the multimedia artist’s favorite places, organized by neighborhood and pared down to just the most pleasing spots you probably wouldn’t discover otherwise." —The New York Times T Magazine
