Perfectly Prague, Perfectly Me
PRAHA “I left Prague too soon” – Another city, another short story by Barlow Najima
Story of a love letter to Paris. Or, of a hate letter to the Eiffel Tower

If not all, certainly an important group of high-profile artists, thinkers and creatives who signed a petition to protest against the tower during its construction.
