The Writer in Paris

Salle J. 30 Juin.
Perhaps you picture a shabby fellow shuffling around with a sheaf of papers from cafe to cafe? Well no! I am buried in the heart of the grand BNF.

I really should give that cafe thing a try. But I don't live in a part of Paris that's terribly desolate, i.e. the cafes are full of German tourists. Not exactly sleeply parts of the Parisian margins. I plan a visit to the margins soon--but to see the French hypermarkets. Watch this space.

The schools are out now--no more late-teenage kids studying. Now it all seems to be people studying law (Droit Civil and all that).
