    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 I had a love of books as a child. I would spend hours leafing through a book, and I would spend my spare time browsing the bouquinistes’ old, damp cases of books. When I returned to Paris after the first war, everything had been taken away.

    #2 I began to see the importance of a book’s reader. I would place the book I thought was appropriate down close to a reader, discreetly, so they wouldn’t feel it had been suggested to them. I grew fond of my customers.

    #3 I attempted to open a French bookshop in Berlin, Germany. I was not unfamiliar with the country, having spent some time there as a girl to perfect my German and pursue music studies with Professor Xaver Scharwenka. I was able to get a bookshop open, but the German government was against it.

    #4 I opened a bookshop in Paris in 1921, and it was a big day for my female customers when the newspapers and fashion magazines arrived. They would swoop on them with exclamations of delight.

      The sun is a cold star. It’s heart, spines of ice. Its light, unforgiving. In February, the trees are dead, the river petrified, as if the springs had stopped spewing water and the sea could swallow no more. These ominous lines open Éric Vuillard’s T
