Read moreThe Polish bookshop is very good with a very wide selection of Polish books on the second floor.

Read moreUn de mes endroits préférés lors de mon séjour à Paris. Une vraie pépite! Une librairie comme on en trouve peu à Paris, au charme certain, avec des vendeurs qui nous conseillent volontiers et qui connaissent bien leurs rayons. Au rez-de-chaussée, on trouve des livres en français de littérature générale. Au 1er étage, on trouve des livres en français sur la Pologne, sur la culture polonaise, d'auteurs polonais, des livres historiques, philosophiques, des livres pour enfants, des BDs, des guides de voyages, des livres sur l'histoire polonaise, des livres sur Auschwitz aussi. Et on trouve évidemment aussi toutes sortes de livres en polonais.
Il y a en outre des sièges pour s'installer confortablement pour choisir tranquillement les livres qu'on veut.
On y trouve aussi des objets décoratifs (poules en bois, chats en bois, oeufs décorés artisanalement - motifs traditionnels polonais).
Bref, si vous aimez la littérature et/ou si vous vous intéressez à la Pologne et/ou si vous rechercherez des livres en polonais, allez-y, c'est une mine d'or. J'en suis repartie des livres pleins mon sac et je suis très contente de mes achats.
Fortement...
