πŸƒI don't often get sentimental about my work, but today when I went up to the doorman at @shakespeareandcoparis and told him I was expected, he said "Ah, c'est vous l'Γ©crivain?" Which was... Un Moment!! Thank you to Flora & everyone there for a wonderful visit πŸ’–
🍁There's now about 5 copies of my book Twelve Percent Dread at the shop with very special Parisian doodles in them - snap them up if you can!
πŸ‚Otherwise the book is available at all good book retailers, online and in store. I don't sell it in my personal shop because it is GIANT and would cost me like €20 to post it. If you want a signed copy...um I will try and visit more bookshops!! Invite me!! Xxxx (at Shakespeare and Company)

George Whitman, Allen Ginsberg , & Lawrence Ferlinghetti at Shakespeare and Co bookstore, Paris, December 1982. George and Lawrence met eachother while studying at the Sorbonne in Paris in 1948, & became lifelong friends. Both opened stores within a few short years.

How did we never google the name? When I read β€œthe garish sun” in @shakespeareandcoparis #Shakespeare #RomeoAndJuliet my mind 🀯😱🀩 that stunning definition is spot on, vivid, bright, and showy. You do live on, I promise you that.🌈 (at Quad Cities) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf3_krfOOV0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

πŸ’§Right in front of the @shakespeareandcoparis the most charming bookstore πŸ“šfor English titles in the world, this fountain ⛲️ gets its share of attention just because of its location. πŸ“It's on the left banc of the Seine, directly across the river from the Catedral of Notre Dame. in the 37 Rue de la BΓ»cherie.

Hommage to one of the most remarkable, influential bookshops in Paris (and, arguably, in the world) : Shakespeare & Co, a left-bank institution for travelers, expats and ordinary Parisians since the 1920’s. Please remember to buy your books from small, independent bookshops, they very much need your support ! #drawing #reading #bookshops #bookstores #independentbookstore #shakespeareandcompany @shakespeareandcoparis #literature #paris #realbooks #landmark #supportyourlocalbookstore (at Ile-de-France, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIK3PKthOZa/?igshid=2jqjifsgagih

Today, I was lucky enough to (by which, I mean 'avoided adult responsibility long enough to') finish 'Jamiaca Inn' in the cool morning air, and later start Baudelaire's 'The Flowers of Evil' under indoor darkness. In 2 out of the 2 poems I've read thus far, Baudelaire has painted images of dancing women, which brought this Voltaire quote to mind. I read it, years ago, on a paper bag from @shakespeareandcoparis (which I have kept to this day), that has also (along with any bookshop I have ever loved) been on my mind today πŸ–€. As I do not, without searching, know the source of the quote, I will instead recommend Voltaire's 'Candide' (1759). It has been years (a decade?!) too, since I read it, but I still name it amongst my favourites. I fail to recall any gothic elements within it, but I think, now more than ever, a blasphemous little satirical comedy can be excused! πŸ€”: What are you reading today, and which texts are amongst your wild card, off-brand favourites? . #generallygothic #gothic #worldbookday #worldbookday2020 #shelfie #bookshelf #bookcase #voltaire #candide #frenchliterature #paris #baudelaire #charlesbaudelaire #classicliterature #bookshop #bookstore #shakespeare #shakespeareandcompany #satire #jamaicainn #gothicnovel #englishliterature #bookstagram #spookynerd #darkacadmiaaesthetic #darkacademia #typewriter #daphnedumaurier #darkpoetics #readersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B_WI2MxgEKf/?igshid=j7kew8gfkaa2

I got a chance to tour some of the other rooms, and couldn’t help sharing. There’s the Dr. Seuss room (not hard spotting that one), the John Steinbeck room, the Virginia Woolf room (β€œa room of one’s own”, complete with a view of the nearby lighthouse, of course), the F. Scott Fitzgerald room, and the Jane Austen room (many more I didn’t get to view because they were currently occupied). The hotel also has a TWO STORY library, no TVs, no WiFi, and a no cellphone policy (I had to post these after checking out). In other words, paradise. #bookstagram #bookish #oregon #oregoncoast #shakespeareandcompany #sylviabeach @shakespeareandcoparis (at Sylvia Beach Hotel) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2zWCMWB8Ji/?igshid=o9a8r2sxz8ug
