«Ouvert la nuit» is the short story collection by Paul Morand, published by Gallimard in paperback (238 pages, in French).
Paul Morand's work opens with a narrator who, after years away from Paris, finds a city confirming the transformation of customs begun in 1917: a generation returns from war, weary of yesterday and eager for tomorrow, seeking someone to reveal the new world and make the planet their home.
Originally published in 1922, this edition belongs to Gallimard's L'Imaginaire collection.
