In Nice, Les Parleuses describes itself as a socially engaged general bookshop-bistro. The venue on place du Général-Georges-Marshall thus combines a selection of books with a space where you can stop for a drink or something to eat, rather than separating bookshop and café.
A bookshop open about its commitments
The programme and editorial choices give a visible place to social issues and encounters. Les Parleuses regularly organises discussions with authors, turning the venue into a cultural meeting point as well as a bookshop.
Not to be confused
The business also has a separate children’s bookshop in Nice, on rue Defly. The place Marshall address remains the home of the bookshop-bistro concept: it is the one to choose for reading, discussion and a food break in the same place.
