Marc Levy for “The Bookstore of Forbidden Books”

Tuesday, November 19, Marc Levy published “The bookstore of forbidden Books” published by Robert Laffont.

Mitch, a passionate bookseller, is arrested one morning for an unthinkable crime: he broke the law by selling illegal and censored books. After five years in prison, he has only one desire, to regain his freedom and his bookstore. But fate decides otherwise. The same day, Mitch meets the prosecutor who convicted him and meets Anna, a young chef who could well be the woman of his life. What to do when you are caught between an irrepressible desire for revenge and an irresistible desire to love? Can we dream of a future without having come to terms with the past? “A brilliant and committed comedy that makes you want to read and love,” summarizes its publisher.
