Back Again To Paris is a memoir written by the infamous adventurer and seducer, Jacques Casanova. The book details Casanova's return to Paris after a long absence, where he finds himself caught up in the city's vibrant social scene and embarks on a series of amorous adventures with a variety of women. Along the way, he reflects on his past experiences and muses on the nature of love, desire, and the human condition. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the life and mind of one of history's most notorious figures, and offers a unique perspective on the culture and society of 18th century France.I had two objects in speaking thus: I wanted to frighten him and to make him jealous of me. I felt certain that a man in a passion of jealousy would be quite confused, and I hoped his play would suffer accordingly, and that I should not have the mortification of losing a hundred louis to his superior play, though I won the fifty louis of the wager.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
