Shakespeare & Co ~ I love this book store near the L'Ile St Louis!!
This is truly one of my favourite places in Paris. Located in the 5th arrondissement, in Paris's left bank, Shakespeare & Company has become the quintessence of the literary bookstore and library. Specializing in the english language, it was once frequented by the writers, authors and poets such as Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ezra Pound. It's a must for anyone visiting Paris!
Thanks, Fifi! xoxo, B
