The Village Voice Bookshop is located in a historical neighborhood, only three minutes away from the churches of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, in the heart of Paris’ Rive Gauche, and of Saint Sulpice, the city’s second largest church after Notre-Dame, built over three centuries and host to two large paintings by Eugène Delacroix, whose atelier is also nearby. Of course, Saint-Germain-des-Prés was also the neighborhood where the great American writers and artists of the 20th century held their salons; Gertrude Stein, a couple of streets away from Saint-Sulpice, Sylvia Beach, whose bookshop was on rue de l’Odéon, and Natalie Barney, priestess of the most renowned salon of the time, rue Jacob. When Henry Miller revised his novel Tropic of Cancer in the 1930’s, he was living in a hotel at 4, rue Princesse. Remember to take a look at our large selection of books on Paris as a cultural magnet for generations of American writers and artists.
