From Paris to the Moon by Adam Gopnik

This is a wonderful book about a husband and wife who move from New York to Paris with their eight-month-old son. Gopnik has a lovely gift for the turn of phrase as he describes living in Paris, the joys and frustrations of family, and the liminal existence of the exile. Highly recommended.
