Shakespeare & Co. bookstores throughout Europe

This summer I’ve been to the three Shakespeare & Co. bookstores there are in Europe.

The Parisian bookstore is by far the most amazing one, but being my home one might say I’m a little biased. The only problem with this bookstore now is the massive amount of tourists… but I don’t blame them, it really is worth a visit

The second one I’ve been is in Vienna, Austria such a cute store. Incredible ambience and even more incredible staff. So helpful and always with a smile. I loved there! At first it didn’t seem like a big store, but once you get to the end there’s a tiny corridor that takes to another section of the store and I found this so amazing!

The third and last one was the bookstore in Praha, Czech Republic. I really love this bookstore. The prices were by far the cheapest out of all three. The staff once again really amazing, and the store was huge !!! They transformed this old basement as part of the store and it was really cozy and I just sat there for almost an hour reading.

Behind the famous bookstore in Paris, Shakespeare and Company, were a lesbian owner Sylvia Beach and her lover Adrienne Monnier.

The bookshop Shakespeare and Company has been at the heart of the Paris literary scene for decades, particularly during the 1920s and 1930s. It was set up by American Sylvia Beach who, along with her partner Adrienne Monnier, ran the store until World War II.

…

Down the street on rue de l'Odéon was another bookstore, La Maison des Amis des Livres.

Its owner Adrienne Monnier was Sylvia's partner. Their love story was said to have begun when Sylvia's hat blew away in the wind on rue de l'Odéon, and Adrienne chased after it. 'J'aime beaucoup l'Amérique,' declared Adrienne, to which Sylvia replied, 'J'aime beaucoup la France.' They were a couple for 36 years until Adrienné's death in 1955.

Sylvia was also the publisher of James Joyce’s “Ulysses.”
