Shakespeare and Company, Paris


Emma the bohemian is staying at this icon:
In exchange for about 4 hours of work per day, she has a bed in the bookstore and uses the public showers. Soon she will be going to the south of France to stay at her second organic farm. Ahhh, to be twenty and unafraid!! I did a Google entry for Shakespeare + bookstore + Paris and got a lot of hits. Like this and this and this.

Hi Mary--sorry to hijack your post but I wanted to be sure you get this. :-) If you want any of the H.M. Hoover books I've just weeded you're more than welcome to them! Here's what I have (all in hardback)

The Lost Star
The Bell Tree
Children of Morrow
Treasures of Morrow
The Rains of Eridan

Let me know at miss.nem [at] gmail.com if you're interested!

Hey, wow, sounds so interesting to be literally living in a bookstore, I once slept in a lab in MOnterrey CA (sleeping bag on lab bench) but that was only for one night, can't imagine living in such a cool environment. is there a bedroom/dorm room in there?
