A Lost Place Found: A Thread.
About 5 years ago me and my girlfriend were in Paris. It was pouring with rain and we were looking for shelter.
We came across an alleyway leading to a courtyard, so we ducked in.
That's when we noticed there was a shop in the courtyard...
Oh man, it was wild. It was like a mix between a 2nd hand bookshop and a mad archivist's attic. There were theatre programmes from the 19th century. Gilt-edged invitations to parties that happened in the 1930s. Books, newspapers, photographs, stacked from floor to ceiling.
