...Alma tunnel has become a place of morbid pilgrimage: a way station in the re-enactment of Diana's life and death. But a thousand imponderables lie behind the tragic tale of that car accident on Aug. 31, 1997, that also killed her lover Dodi Fayed and driver Henri Paul. French authorities still have no clear answers to many vexing questions. They say they have definitively ruled out the possibility of a conspiracy, and now consider the crash an accident owing mainly to drunk driving, excessive speed and a dangerous stretch of road.

Early in the century, when young talent such as Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, Henri Matisse, Gertrude Stein and Gene Kelly flocked to Paris, making it the world capital of artistic ferment, Glimp set up his atelier in Helsinki. "The rent's cheap" was his cryptic explanation to friends and admirers who for years vainly urged him to relocate. By the time he did, Paris turned out to be occupied by the Nazis and all the cafes had switched from vin rouge to beer and spaetzle...
