'Shakespeare and Company' in Paris is one of the world's most famous bookshops. The original store opened in 1921 and became known as the haunt of literary greats, such as Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, George Bernard Shaw, Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein and James Joyce. Sadly the shop was forced to close in 1941, but that was not the end of 'Shakespeare and Company'...In 1951 another bookshop, with a similar free-thinking ethos, opened on the Left Bank. Called 'Le Mistral', it had beds for those of a literary mindset who found themselves down on their luck and, in 1964, it resurrected the name 'Shakespeare and Company' and became the principal meeting place for Beatnik poets, such as Allen Ginsberg and William S. Burroughs, through to Henry Miller and Lawrence Durrell. Today the tradition continues and writers still find their way to this bizarre establishment, one of them being Jeremy Mercer. With no friends, no job, no money and no prospects, the thrill of escape from his life in Canada soon palls but, by chance, he happens upon the fairytale world of 'Shakespeare and Co' and is taken in. What follows is his tale of his time there, the curious people who came and went, the realities of being down and out in the 'city of light' and, in particular, his relationship with the beguiling octogenarian owner, George.
此书有一大遗憾,也许是因为作者过去从事过犯罪记者的原因,他的文字显得更像是新闻报道,与此书的主题十分格格不入。尽管如此,作者还是给我们展现了一个真正存在过的乌托邦世界,那种最纯粹的浪漫和无数故事还有人之间的交叉。书店的店主George Whiteman先生于2011年底去世,享年98岁。他传奇的一生,全部都浓缩在了巴黎左岸这个小小的书店。我去过,也经过过这家书店,但是却没能尝试和老先生以及亲耳听店里的人讲故事,是我旅途中莫大的遗憾。PS:奉劝国内部分喜欢幻想的文青们看看这本书,真正的文艺绝对和你们想像的不一样
