Stead takes us to the heart of contemporary Paris and into a world of books and witty conversation. \u003ci\u003eThe Necessary Angel\u003c\/i\u003e is a story of people grappling with love and fidelity; a story about the importance of books; a commentary on living in complex modern-day Europe; and a page-turning mystery.
