Different Hotel

I have been sternly reproved by Doubleday’s French editor, Beverly Gordey, for misremembering the name of my hotel on the Left Bank of Paris (Traveling in Style, March 17). The charming suite Gordey found for us was in the Hotel St. Simon on the Rue St. Simon, our headquarters while we did the research for our forthcoming book, “Depths of Glory,” about Camille Pissarro and the French Impressionists. I wouldn’t want the readers of the Los Angeles Times magazine to end up at the wrong Parisian hotel. Mea culpa! IRVING STONE Beverly Hills
