France - Tourism - The Shakespeare and Company bookstore

94-year-old proprietor of the Shakespeare and Co Bookshop George Whitman chats to poet and publisher Lawrence Ferlinghetti (R), owner of another great literary institution, the City Lights bookstore in San Francisco. The Shakespeare and Company bookstore, located on the Left Bank in Paris, is an oasis of 20th century bohemian and Lost Generation literary history, visited by greats from the past such as Henry Miller, Laurence Durrell, William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso and Anais Nin. This literary hub of the Beat Generation today still attracts thousands of enthusiasts from around the world who come to pay their respects to its intellectual atmosphere.
