<P> Never Any End to Paris (Spanish: París no se acaba nunca) is a book by Enrique Vila - Matas first published in Spanish in 2003 and first published in English by New Directions Publishing (translated by Anne McLean) in 2011 . The title is taken from the final chapter of A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway (a work that Vila - Matas read at the age of fifteen which inspired him to eventually move to Paris to become a writer). </P> <P> The book is a fictionalised autobiographical portrait of a youthful segment of Vila - Matas's life that was spent in Paris in the 1970s (during which he lived in a room that was rented from Marguerite Duras). As part of a kind of literary apprenticeship, Duras gave him a 13 - point set of instructions for writing novels . </P>
