title: Italics are Mine
author: Nina Berberova
description: Her novels and stories having been rediscovered to great acclaim in the West, Russian emigre Berberova surpasses herself with this mesmerizing autobiography that evokes, with unromantic candor, the world of her fiction--Paris from the 1920s through the 40s. <br />Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc.

  to write this book.**
  
  
  The inspirers, the

  Special thanks to my

  mistakes and wonky sentences.

  This book has been
  
  
  written in UK English.
  
  
  In it, I make use of
  
  
  Italic and regular font to distinguish the perspectives. If you
  
  
  find this irritating, please mail me at info@moniquesingleton with
  
  
  your proof of purchase,
  
  
  and I will send you a
  
  
  version without the italics.
