Latin Quarter, Paris

A Preview

"The enormous building commanding this square is the Pantheon, the temple where France buries its greatest citizens. The crypt down there is full of writers, scientists, and philosophers, and every guidebook in Paris will happily list them for you. I want to tell you about the break-in. High up under that dome hangs a monumental clock, built in eighteen fifty by the Wagner workshop — Vahg-ner."
