  1. Interesting video! Thanks for sharing this.

    • I’ve read everything I could get my hands on about Sylvia Beach and Shakespeare & Co. So fascinating. Glad you enjoyed it. That’s the time period I read about…Paris was amazing during those years.

  2. what an interesting and amazing person –

    • She was a truly amazing person. I’ve read a lot about her and she was heroic and brave, strong and just wonderful…during the war and all through her life. Fantastic woman.

  3. She looks good for 132!

  4. I think so too. She takes good care of herself and uses special creams on her skin. I mean she lives in Paris and they know how to stay young.
