French Fried: The Culinary Capers of an American in Paris, by Harriet Welty Rochefort, 2001. Harriet continues her attempts to demystify the French with French Fried, the saucy-sometimes spicy - and often hilarious tale of one American woman's 30-year foray into the byzantine world of French cuisine. And when it comes to food, Rochefort's experiences are anything but dull or traditional. When she first arrives in France, she dines on onion soup with her concierge. When she finally gets a decent apartment with a kitchen it turns out that there's both a shower - and a cop - in it.

Montmartre is a large hill, in some places a very steep one.
Retaining walls (revetments) had to be built to support the building sites, and their landfill.
The streets are narrow, and in places the pedestrian way is built onto the slope of the stone facing at a higher level than the street. Progress of some streets is broken by steps.
There is no direct access from the 'front' by road. A true measure of the steepness of the hill can be obtained by climbing these steps.
