Livre sur place

This past weekend a couple of us went to a book fair in town called Livre sur place. Fall is the season of publishing in France, so it was only fitting! The huge tents (if they can be called that--they had wooden floors and windows...) were jam-packed  with people browsing the selections. Probably around 100 authors from around the country and surrounding countries came to represent their books at various tables and booths and to answer questions/sign their work. The selections included every genre, from history to politics to science fiction. It was an interesting experience and one of many cultural events that are coming to Nancy this year.
