![]() ![]() To feel the essence of the book we think you should visit here and see if you can find Monsieur Perdu Where M Perdu lives and where he meets his neighbour who will inspire him to do good Rue Montagnard (fictional) but which is located in the marais area of the city where Place Vosges is a favourite place for creative types But then someone comes into his life which inspires him to go in search of the past, forgotten moments, a lost love and ultimately himself. When he was younger, the love of his life fled the city leaving behind a letter which he has never been able to read. Sadly he has been unable to treat his own sadness. “With all due respect, what you read in the long term is more important that the man you marry” Jean Perdu runs a bookshop in Paris but this is no ordinary bookstore – its a beautifully restored barge for one also known as a ‘literary apothecary’, as Jean possesses a rare gift for sensing which books will soothe the troubled souls of his customers. A book about books set in Paris that reminded us of the gorgeous and very real Shakespeare and Company book emporium on the banks of the Seine. ![]()
