La Fête du Livre...(27/11)


Organised by le figaro, la Fête du Livre was held today at Hotel de Ville de Paris. Participated by 200 French writers, the event attracted book lovers in the town and suddenly you would find that there are a lot of readers around spending their time to enjoy the lovely experience of reading...I do not know any of the writers indeed, and walking along the writers' booth, there are quite some interesting books and thoughts of these elites. One of the invited writers is an expert of horse I guess, and his three books displayed talk about horses in Africa and Central Asia respectively. Very insightful work. While most of the writers participated are middle age elites like those professors in University, there is a young lady occupying a booth and her work is kind of novels. Very impressive indeed. Apparently topics related to history and autobiography are the prevalent choice of the French people in the salles. What amuses me is always the decoration in Hotel de Ville, and that is really elegant.
