At the end of 1975, Jane Evelyn Atwood, newly arrived in Paris, produced her first black-and-white photo report. Meeting a prostitute on Rue des Lombards, she discovered a world of extraordinary characters, incredible costumes and the way the women saw the men. Over thirty years later the book gathers this little-known work for the first time, as homage to these women, their generosity and Paris nightlife in the late seventies.
