The kick-off of the 46th “Book on the Square” is imminent in Nancy. The opportunity for the organizers to recall the most beautiful memories lived on the Place de la Carrière.
In 45 editions, there are many memories for lovers of the “Book on the Square”, the first literary fair of the new school year. There is no doubt that this 46th editionwhose official start is scheduled this friday, will leave some more. For the occasion, France Bleu Lorraine left its microphone lying around at the “Hall du Livre”, to immerse the organizers of the event in their beautiful memories.
Difficult to choose
Clearly, for director Astrid Canada, remembering a single moment is difficult, as memories come rushing back in his head.”One of the most beautiful memories is having received Edmonde Charles-Roux, having met Mrs. Badinter. There are personalities who mark you for life” she confides. “But it’s true that there are so many precious moments – the 40th anniversary with all the Goncourts, the departure of Françoise Rossinot – that each year has its share.“
Her assistant Isabelle Gegoux prefers to retain more personal anecdotesshe who is used to pampering all her guests.I like authors to feel at home. So we start to get to know their little whims, even if they are not movie stars. I know that I once bought pickles for Maud Tabachnik because she loved them. I try to bring blankets, cushions. Some like still water, others sparkling water.” she explains.
