Paris in July 2022
#ParisinJuly
Co-hosted by Readerbuzz and Thyme For Tea
Yes, I finally realized after how many years? that it’s ridiculous to have a blog like mine, where so many books are about French lit, and not to be participating in this event. (I did participate a bit many many years ago).
Oh and of course I’m French, and I’m teaching French online!
I’m going to try to post daily, and to avoid repetitions of French books I’m already talking about weekly, I’m thinking to share with you recommendations sent to my students.
So most of my links will be in French, but if you can’t read French, these days it’s easy to ask Google to translate a page or just enjoy the pictures and the videos!
We’ll see, this may evolve over the month.
Day 1
Let’s start with Les passages couverts, that alas some tourists have not heard about.
HAVE YOU VISITED SOME OF THESE?
WHICH PASSAGE COUVERT IS YOUR FAVORITE?
Words And Peace 
Happy Canada Day, aussi un pays en français… 😉

Haven’t visited. Didn’t understand a lot but I loved the “ebanista” and the lady resident’s home.

I know, sorry about that, I didn’t have much time to add something in English.
BUT here is a silent walking tour among several passages: https://youtu.be/EfOGrj6-aYk

I love that video! Luckily it’s in standard French so I could follow. I have been to several of these Passages over the years. I wrote about one here:
