2018 | ISBN: 2412038635 | Français | EPUB | 352 pages | 0.4 MB

Qui a eu l'idée de murer les fenêtres du Panthéon ? Qu'était le Val-de-Grâce avant d'être un lieu consacré à la médecine ? Qui sont les Innocents de la belle fontaine des Halles ? Le Palais-Royal est-il vraiment d'origine… royale ?
À Paris, au fil des rues, au détour des places ou des allées, de mystérieux indices inspirent des questions surprenantes.

So It Goes: Travels in the Aran Isles, Xian and places in between by Nicolas Bouvier
English | October 10th, 2019 | ISBN: 178060114X | 192 pages | EPUB | 0.68 MB

Translated here for the first time into English, this collection of shorter travel writings from the golden pen of Nicolas Bouvier covers journeys undertaken in the 1970s, '80s and '90s. In the Aran Isles in mid-winter, he glories in the extremities of the wind outside while inside, feverish, he is enchanted by local tales which hum like a kettle on the fire. In Xian, he pays homage to the civilised brilliance and understatement of his guide, while in Korea he experiences the unchanging beauty of the Buddhist temple at Haeinsa and is marked forever by his climb of volcanic Halla-San. And the roots of his interminable curiosity and amusement are traced back to his childhood reading, and to the bitter war he conducted at the age of eight to rid himself of his arch-nemesis, Bertha.

Michigan has two beautiful peninsulas that are connected by stories, legends, and mysteries. This book is the perfect glove compartment companion for exploring those paranormal parts of the Mitten State, as most of these hotels, restaurants, theaters, lighthouses, and other places are open to the public. This road trip to the other side, filled with hauntings, ghost towns, and bizarre tales of murder and mayhem, draws from more than 300 years of Michigan history from the notoriously haunted remote lighthouses like Seul Choix in the Upper Peninsula to Eloise, one of the most famous psychiatric asylums in America, to the legend of Lover's Leap on Mackinac Island.
