Overview

This venue is a bookstore (on the first floor) and an art gallery (on the second floor). The bookstore comes with a good selection of novels, essays, history, and art books as well as coffee-table books about Tunisia. Most of them are written in French. The location is easy to find; it sits in front of the TGM train station and near the ice-cream maker Le Grand Salem. It was created in 1990, and has been a dynamic place that holds literary meetings, cultural debates, and books signing sessions. Most of the artists and intellectuals that are invited are from North Africa or France. -N.L.
