![]() If you can, picture yourself sitting in a big comfy chair by the fireside with the fire burning and a cup of coffee or tea nearby, and an afghan if needed and this little book in your hands as you begin reading. When you finish the novel you will be given additional pages filled with wonderful recipes from the cuisine of Provence and Marseilles prepared by Salvatore Cuneo who has joined Jean Perdu on his floating barge down the rivers of France. I say unique because the imagination of the author Nina George provides for us an interesting concept and, I say little because this novel is 370 pages set in a smaller than average hardcover. This novel will take you on a personal adventure of the heart starting with one man and ending with multiple story lines of interesting lives of the characters who become the personal friends who join him throughout this unique little book. ![]() The Little Paris Bookshop is on a floating barge called Lulu on the River Seine and beckons all book lovers to come on board. People who love books and bookstores will appreciate the notion that certain books stay with you and you never forget them. I could not think of a better opening line for my review of The Little Paris Bookshop than a quote by Cicero: “A room without books is like a body without a soul.” ![]() The Little Paris Bookshop: Book Review by Arlene ![]()
