CHANTELIVRE
Read moreIt is undoubtedly the most famous bookshop for children. And for good reason, Chantelivre concentrates the cream of youth literature, from few months old kids to teenagers. The shelves have thousands of references, not to mention the CDs, DVDs and games. We go to Chantelivre for personalized advice for this particular attention paid to children and adults.
FNAC PARIS - MONTPARNASSE
Read moreIt was impossible for Fnac not to be present in one of the most commercial streets in Paris, straight ahead in the extension of the Montparnasse Tower. You can't miss its facade with its dated futuristic style which makes the corner. Inside, nothing looks more like a Fnac than another Fnac: anthracite carpeting, low ceilings, well-ordered shelves defined by category: books, DVDs, high-tech, stationery, and even small household appliances, ticket sales... As in all Fnacs, meetings with authors and musicians are regularly organised
LIBRAIRIE PASSION AUTOMOBILE
Read moreA nice address to discover in Paris to buy books about cars and the car world. You can find a vast choice of books on the circuits, the drivers, the different brands and models, retrospectives by year of the Grand Prix. The Librairie Passion Automobile also offers books on motorcycles, French and foreign, on planes, boats, trains, military, agricultural or utility vehicles.
LA PROCURE
Read moreThis address has existed since 1919! If La Procure is the reference bookshop for religious works, it is also a generalist bookshop with a strong focus on literature, human sciences, children's books and fine arts, with a collection of around 300,000 books. It also has a CD and DVD area as well as a gourmet area "Saveur des Monastères" with jams, cookies, wines and caramels. In addition, La Procure organizes round tables on books on social topics.
LE NEUVIÈME PAYS
Read moreThe capital's one and only Franco-German bookshop, Le Neuvième Pays opened its doors at the beginning of November 2023 in the 6th arrondissement. Sophie Semin welcomes you with an attractive catalog of 6,000 items, a third of which are dedicated to Goethe's language. Classics and world literature, in French and German, and bilingual editions are on offer, much to the delight of German-speaking readers who have been left on their own since the closure of specialized bookshops in recent years. Highly recommended.
LIBRAIRIE DES PETITS PLATONS
Read moreThis house is out of the ordinary. The Little Platoons' bookstore offers our toddlers and young people books on philosophy, among other things, to train and make these adults in the making think. Founded by philosophy enthusiasts, without falling into razor-sharp intellectualism, the bookstore takes an interest in master thinkers with simplicity: "Why do things have a name", "La Folle Journée du Professeur Kant", "Moi, Jean-Jacques Rousseau", or "Lao-Tseu ou la Voie du Dragon" (The Way of the Dragon). The budding Plato's can thus apprehend philosophy by escaping through allegorical tales. In addition, philosophy workshops and signing sessions are organized throughout the year. Adults are not forgotten with works intended for them, always in the philosophical vein.
