Description

On the Pavement, the Pen takes you on this journey into the excesses of fame and notoriety... On one side, a monument of French literature: Balzac. On the other, a neighborhood: the Marais, a character in its own right in the Human Comedy.<br><br> It's enough to make you lose your bearings... So who's who?<br><br> In Balzac's work, everything is intimately linked: reality with fiction, people with places. A fascinating universe that we invite you to explore...<br><br> Many characters await us, lurking in the shadows of a courtyard or watching us from the end of a dead-end street. All of them, ghosts of a bygone era, whom our presence will resurrect. Shh! There's Cousin Pons, sadly returning home, and Lucien de Rubempré, what a dandy!<br> A fine crowd... As long as we don't run into the dreadful witch of Vieille-du-Temple Street, so quick to cast a spell... But surely, it's worth the risk!<br><br> <b>Please note:</b><br> The exact address will be mentioned on the receipt.
