"At The Lilas In Paris" |
This is an authentic plaque, not tourist trap nonsense.
When Papa came into the Lilas, if you were sitting at his seat at the bar, you moved.
(There is a similar plaque for French Philosopher/Writer Jean-Paul Sartre at a nearby table.)
The book, photographed with the plaque one Sunday morning before the Lilas opened, is the new edition of Hemingway's Paris memoir A MOVEABLE FEAST, first published posthumously in the 1960s; this version is more as Hemingway would have wanted it -- the bad editing of publishing house editors has been corrected by Hemingway's son Patrick and his grandson Sean.
