Who has never wanted like Willy Hahn to write about his daily life?
She is a young woman of our time; he’s an accountant, he’s a librarian, he’s a father filled with pride for his daughter: there are around sixty sensitive portraits, sometimes funny, always accurate. These are the customers who come through the door of Willy Hahn’s bookshop. Independent bookseller, Willy Hahn offers us with these portraits an overview of his profession, and the incredible richness offered to him by the readers who cross his threshold. His short texts make us love without restraint, mock without malice, they make us laugh and think. In the encounters that Willy Hahn shares with us, we measure how much booksellers are not just booksellers. This little collection does a world of good.
The book was published by l’Herbier. The book’s illustrator is Jack Koch.
